    (CH₃) ₃COCH3₃ and (CH₃) ₂CHOCH₂CH₃

    Explanation:

    Isomers are compounds which have the same molecular formula. Constitutional isomers have different connectivity; the atoms are connected in different ways.

    1. (CH₃) ₃COCH₃

    2. (CH₃) ₂CHOCH3₃

    3. (CH₃) ₂CHOCH₂CH₃

    Molecules 1 and 3 have the same formula (C₅H₁₂O) and are isomers. Molecule 2 is not an isomer. From the structural formula, it is clear that Molecules 1 and 3 have different connectivity.
