2-methylpropan-1-ol

Step-by-step explanation:

Data Give:

Three Isomers are given

names of These =?

Details:

Isomers:

Isomers are those chemical compounds that have same molecular formula but different structures.

In the given question the compound have same molecular formula that is C₄H₉OH but the structures are different.

So due to different structures they are named differently.

The 1st one is straight and the other two are branched

Names are given in attachment

butan-1-ol or Butanol

As it contain 4 carbon atoms an -OH group is attached at position 1.

________________

2-methylpropan-2-ol

In this -OH and -CH₃ is attached on carbon 2

_____________

2-methylpropan-1-ol

In this -CH₃ attached at position 2 and -OH is attached on Carbon 1.
