Correct answer: A. Position isomers

  • A. Position isomers
  • B. Chain isomers
  • C. Functional group isomers
  • D. Metamers

Explanation

1-chloropropane and 2-chloropropane are positional isomers.Positional isomers have the same functional group (reactive group of molecules), different positions of functional group, and the same molecular (ex. alcohol, propan-1-ol and propan-2-ol, 1-chloropropane and 2-chloropropane).

About Alkyl Halides

Alkyl halides are named and related to their carbon-halogen structure, polarity and reactivity. The key reactions are nucleophilic substitution by SN1 and SN2 mechanisms and elimination by E1 and E2 mechanisms, including how substrate structure, nucleophile, base, solvent and temperature influence substitution versus elimination.
