Final answer:

The type of isomers for o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene is structural isomers. Hence the correct answer is option B

Step-by-step explanation:

The type of isomers for o-xylene, m-xylene, and p-xylene is structural isomers. Structural isomers are organic compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structures. In this case, all three isomers have the chemical formula C8H10, but their arrangement of atoms is different. They are called ortho (o-xylene), meta (m-xylene), and para (p-xylene) isomers based on the positions of the substituent groups on the benzene ring.

Hence the correct answer is option B
