- A 4 n
- B \(3 n\)
- C 5 n
- D 6 n
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) 6 n
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
An alkane will exhibit five structural isomers when there are 6 moles of carbon atoms present in it. The structural isomers of alkane \(\mathrm{C}_6 \mathrm{H}_{14}\) are as follows:
