Question: Draw the five constitutional isomers having molecular formula C6H14.

Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

Step by step solution

01

Constitutional isomers

Constitutional isomers differ when the atoms in a molecule change their bonding to each other.Therefore, the molecular formula remains the same.

02

Hexane

Hexane has six carbon and fourteen hydrogen atoms. Therefore, the carbon atoms change their bonding and form different structures.

03

Explanation

There are six constitutional structures of the given C6H14molecule. One structure has a long chain of six carbons.

Two structures have methyl substitution at different positions.

Two structures have two methyl group substitutions at different positions.
