(a)
Interpretation:
The given compound has to be classified as an ether, an alcohol, or neither an ether or alcohol.
Concept Introduction:
Ether is an organic compound. In ether, an oxygen atom is bonded to two carbon atoms by a single bond. The groups that are attached to the carbon atom by a single bond may be alkyl, aryl, or cycloalkyl groups. The
