✓
Answer
-
$\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{Hexane}$
-
$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 2-\text{Methylpentane}$
-
$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ 3-\text{Methylpentane}$
-
$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\text{CH}_3-\text{CH}-\text{CH}-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ 2,3\text{ dimethylbutane}$
-
$\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\text{CH}_3-\text{C}-\text{CH}_2-\text{CH}_3\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ |\\\ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \ \text{CH}_3\\2,2\text{ dimethylbutane}$
