In which of the following, functional group isomerism is not possible?
General KnowledgeChemistry
- AAlcohols
- BAldehydes
- CAlkyl halides
- DCyanides
Explanation
Functional group isomerism occurs when compounds with the same molecular formula contain different functional groups - as in alcohols and ethers, aldehydes and ketones, and cyanides and isocyanides. Alkyl halides have no alternative functional group with the same general formula, so functional group isomerism is not possible for them. Hence option C is correct.
