5. What alkyl groups make up the following ether?(LO.8) a- isobutyl and propyl b- propyl and butyl c. cthyl and isopropyl d- propyland see-butyl e.None of these

## Step 1<br />The problem is asking us to identify the alkyl groups that make up the given ether. Ethers are a type of organic compound that contain an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups. They are generally represented as R-O-R', where R and R' are the alkyl or aryl groups.<br /><br />## Step 2<br />The options provided are:<br />a- isobutyl and propyl<br />b- propyl and butyl<br />c- ethyl and isopropyl<br />d- propyl and sea<br />e- None of these<br /><br />## Step 3<br />We need to identify the correct alkyl groups that make up the ether. The alkyl groups are represented by the names of the groups, which are derived from the number of carbon atoms they contain.<br /><br />## Step 4<br />Looking at the options, we can see that option c- ethyl and isopropyl are the correct alkyl groups that make up the ether. Ethyl is a two-carbon alkyl group, while isopropyl is a three-carbon alkyl group.
