1.	Write the position isomers of diethyl ether. Write their structures and IUPAC names. Can these be also regarded as metamers ?
Answer» Solution :Two position isomers (I and II) are possible of diethyl ether. `underset("Diethyl ether")(CH_(3)CH_(2)-O-CH_(2)CH_(3)) "" underset("1-Methoxypropane")(CH_(3)O-CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3))``{:(""CH_(3)),("\|"),(CH_(3)O-CH-CH_(3)),("2-Methoxypropane (II)"):}` Both these can ALSO be regarded as METAMERS of diethyl ether because these differ in the number of carbon ATOMS on either side of the ethereal OXYGEN.
