Solution

The correct option is B CH3NHCH2CH2CH3 and CH3NHCH2CH3
Answer is option C.
Metamers are the compounds having the same molecular formula but different number of carbon atoms on either side of the side of the fractional group.
In case of CH3NHCH2CH2CH3 and CH3NHCH2CH3,
molecular formula is C4H11N and C3H9N respectively. They differ in molecular formula and hence are not metamers.
