There is NO such compound like 'Ethyl Methyl Ester' as written in the original question.
Probably it might not have been the misspelled name ester, but rather an ether instead.
The compound then could be:
Methoxyethane, (CH3-O-C2H5)
also known as methyl ethyl ether, it is a colorless gas with a medicine-like odor.
It is extremely flammable and its inhalation may causeasphyxiation or dizzyness.
Nearest to the questioned LD50: Only this figure for analogous Di-Ethyl Ether
(C2H5-O-C2H5) ethoxyethane could be found:
Oral-LDlowest to man: 260 mg.kg-1(BodyWeight)
[cited from: see related links]
Other, but incomplete data on Ethyl methyl ether: gaseous above 7oC !!
LC50 on inhalation : 1082gm/m3/15M (or 1082000mg/m3),
BEHAVIORAL: GENERAL ANESTHETIC, lit.cit. Anesthesiology(Vol. 11, p.455) 1950
Has anesthetic properties. A very dangerous fire and moderate explosion hazard when exposed to heat or flame.

cold solution of HI forms ethyl methyl oxonium ion and iodide ion while hot condition ethyl methyl ether undergoes the substitution reaction with HI. C2H5-O-CH3 HI ----Cold---> C2H5-O+(H)-CH3 + I- ----Hot----> C2H5-OH + CH3-I and CH3-OH + C2H5-I
1-Methoxypropane An ether is just an oxygen atom with two R groups branching off of it. Methyl propyl ether has a methyl group and propyl group branching off, so it is named methoxypropane.
CH3CH2CH2C(CH3)2CH3 is 2,2-dimethylpentane
H3C is a part of the larger compound H3C-CH2-O-CH3, which is ethyl methyl ether, also known as methoxyethane.
R-O-R where , R = alkyl group For Example, CH3 - O -CH3 is di-methyl ether, C2H5 - O -C2H5 is di-ethyl ether, C2H5 - O - CH3 is ethyl methyl ether......etc.

In this molecule you have 2 different carbon chains separated by the functional ether group. The generic formula for an ether is R-O-R. Your first group is a 2 carbon chain called an ethyl and your second group is a 1 carbon called a methyl. So you have a methyl group and ethyl group which must be put together in in alphabetical order ethyl-methyl and then followed by the functional group -ether. Thus your final molecule name is ethyl-methyl-ether. Good luck with the rest of O. Chem!
Its common name is Methyl ethyl ether, and I.U.P.A.C. name is 1-methoxy propane.
Yes, these formulae are interchangeable.

H3C is a part of the larger compound H3C-CH2-O-CH3, which is ethyl methyl ether, also known as methoxyethane.
The condensed molecular formula of methoxyethane(also known as ethyl methyl ether):methyl group -> -CH3methoxy group -> -OCH3ethyl group -> -CH2CH3Methoxy group + ethyl group = CH3- and -O- and -CH2CH3 the condensed molecular formula is: CH3OCH2CH3
CH3CH2CH2C(CH3)2CH3 is 2,2-dimethylpentane
The bonds in ethyl methyl ketone are covalent.
this is nothing actually is... CH3-CH2-CH2-O-CH2-CH3 ethyl methyl ether....
