    The number of isomeric hexanes is:

    A) \[5\]                                     

    B) \[2\]

    C) \[3\]                                     

    D)  \[4\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Key Idea: Draw the structure, name them and count them.                 \[{{C}_{6}}{{H}_{14}}-hexane\]. (i)\[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}}\]                hexane (ii)\[C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  C{{H}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,H-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}}\]                2-methyl pentane (iii)\[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  C{{H}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,H-C{{H}_{2}}-C{{H}_{3}}\]               3-methyl pentane (iv)\[C{{H}_{3}}-C{{H}_{2}}-\underset{\begin{smallmatrix}  | \\  C{{H}_{3}} \end{smallmatrix}}{\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  C{{H}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}}\,-C{{H}_{3}}\]              2, 2-dimethyl butane (v)\[C{{H}_{3}}-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  C{{H}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,H-\overset{\begin{smallmatrix}  C{{H}_{3}} \\  | \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{C}}\,H-C{{H}_{3}}\]             2, 3-dimethyl butane
