Answer
(a) A, B, and C are isomers of each other as they all have the molecular formula C4H8
(b) A, B and C are all alkenes with 4 carbon atoms (C4H8), D is an alkene with 5 carbon atoms (C5H10). Therefore, D(1-pentene) is a member of homologous series of alkenes but is not an isomer of A, B, or C.
(c) 2-Methylpropene
