Answer 2

Answer:

Molecular formula C₅H₁₁Cl has total number of constitutional isomers is equal to eight.

Explanation:

• The isomers which have same molecular formula but different connectivity of atoms are known as constitutional isomers.
• Types of constitutional isomers:

1. Functional group isomers (different functional groups)
2. Chain isomers (different carbon chain)
3. Metamers (different group attached to polyvalent atom of functional group)
4. Tautomers (exist in equilibrium and undergo rapid interconversion)

Molecular formula of C₅H₁₁Cl has 8 constitutional isomers:

• 1-cholropentane
• 2-chloropentane
• 3-chloropentane
• 1-cholro-2-methylbutane
• 1-cholro-3-methylbutane
• 2-cholro-3-methylbutane
• 2-cholro-2-methylbutane
• 1-cholro-2,2-dimethylpropane
