Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The identical molecules needs to be determined in the given structure of hydrocarbon.
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds are the compounds which are mainly composed C and H atoms. The branch of chemistry that deals with preparation, reactions, and properties of organic compounds. The molecular formula of organic compound represents the number of bonded atoms with their atomic symbols.
The structures of organic compounds can be shown in the form of line formula in which the
(b)
Interpretation:
Theisomers in the given structure of hydrocarbon needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Organic compounds are the compounds which are mainly composed C and H atoms. The branch of chemistry that deals with preparation, reactions, and properties of organic compounds. The molecular formula of organic compound represents the number of bonded atoms with their atomic symbols.
The structures of organic compounds can be shown in the form of line formula in which the chemical bonds between C atoms are represented as line and the intersect points denote the C atoms.
