Answer:
B
Solution:

Ans. Enantiomers.

Sol. Both are butan-2-ol with one stereocentre (C-2 carrying OH, H, CH3 and C2H5). The OH is wedged up in one and wedged down in the other with the carbon chain drawn identically, so the configurations are opposite (R and S). Non-superimposable mirror images : enantiomers.
