Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
1.$ \underset{n-hexane}{\mathop{CH_3-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3}}, $
2.$ \underset{2-methyl,pentane}{\mathop{CH_3-\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|,}{\mathop{CH-}},}},CH_2-CH_2-CH_3}}, $
3.$ \underset{3-methyl,pentane}{\mathop{CH_3-CH_2-\underset{,CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{CH}},}},-CH_2-CH_3}}, $
4.$ \underset{\text{2,3}-Dimethyl,butane}{\mathop{CH_3-\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|,}{\mathop{CH-}},}},\underset{CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|,}{\mathop{CH-}},}},CH_3}}, $
5.$ \underset{3-methyl,pentane}{\mathop{CH_3-CH_2-\underset{,CH_3}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\mathop{CH}},}},-CH_2-CH_3}}, $
