(A) primary alcohol contains the functional group $-CH_2OH$.For the formula $C_4H_{10}O$,we remove one $-CH_2OH$ group,leaving a $C_3H_7$ alkyl group.The possible isomers for the $C_3H_7$ group are:$1$. $CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-$ (n-propyl)$2$. $(CH_3)_2CH-$ (isopropyl)Attaching the $-CH_2OH$ group to these gives:$1$. $CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2OH$ (butan$-1-$ol)$2$. $(CH_3)_2CH-CH_2OH$ ($2$-methylpropan$-1-$ol)Thus,there are $2$ possible primary alcohols.

How many primary alcohols are possible for the formula $C_4H_{10}O$?
