Which of the following compounds are functional group isomers of $C_{3} H_{6} O_{2}$ ?

(1) Ethyl methanoate (2) 3-hydroxypropanal (3) Propane-1,2-diol

Answer:

Solution:

Ethyl methanoate (ester) and 3-hydroxypropanal (hydroxy aldehyde) are both $C_{3} H_{6} O_{2}$ .

Propane-1,2-diol is $C_{3} H_{8} O_{2}$ , so it is not an isomer.
