1. Cl on every carbon  

2. two Cl on first carbon, one on second carbon  

3. two Cl on second carbon, one Cl on first carbon  

4. Two Cl on first carbon, one on third carbon

Answer 2

The number of structural isomers of $C3H5Cl3$   trichloro propane is 5

Explanation:

• Those isomers where the atoms are arranged completely in a different order according to the same molecular formulas.
• They have the same molecular formula but with different connectivities which totally depends upon the order they are put together.

• $C3H5Cl3$ is trichloro propane
• here the chlorine can be changed at various positions.
• Since there are three chlorine atoms, we can change them in five ways
• In order to do that as we can place the Cl atom in the following positions- 1,1,1 or 1,1,2 or 1,2,1 or 1,2,2 or 1,2,3.

• Thus the 5 structural isomers of trichloropropane.
