Answer 1

its wrong it should be i have two brothers and one of them is a scientist.

Answer 2

Answer :

According to Cambridge English Dictionary, 'Whom is the object form of who. We use whom to refer to people in formal styles or in writing, when the person is the object of the verb. We don’t use it very often and we use it more commonly in writing than in speaking.'

Cambridge English Dictionary defines 'them' as 'used, usually as the object of a verb or preposition, to refer to people, things, animals, situations, or ideas that have already been mentioned.'

From the above definitions we can gather that 'whom' is incorrectly used in the given sentence. So, the correct sentence should be :

I have two brothers, one of them is a scientist.
