Well, I can count at least "14"..........."structural isomers...."

Explanation:

And these 14 isomers are alcohols, and ethers. And this reflects the fiendish connectivity of the carbon atom. You start with a relatively small, modest formula of C_5H_12O, and you end up with an array of different structure, all with distinct physical, and chemical properties.
