Solution

(ii) II and III

Explanation:

In position isomerism, two or more compounds differ in the position of substituent, functional group or multiple bonds but molecular formula is same. In pentanone-2 and pentanone-3, position of ketonic group is different.

CH3 – CH2 – CH2 – CO – CH3 and CH3 – CH2 – CO – CH2 – CH3
