Question
a. **Structure Description**:
The first structure is a linear alkane chain with the following details:
- It contains a main chain with ten carbon atoms.
- There are ethyl (CH₂CH₃) and methyl (CH₃) groups attached at various positions.
- Numbering from left to right, the ethyl group is on the 2nd carbon and a methyl group on the 4th carbon.

b. **Structure Description**:
The second structure is a cycloalkane featuring:
- A cyclobutane ring (square shape) as the central structure.
- There is a methyl (CH₃) group attached to one vertex of the ring.
- An ethyl group (CHCH₃) is connected adjacent to the methyl group.

c. **Structure Description**:
The third structure presents an unsaturated hydrocarbon:
- It contains a double bond between the central carbon atoms.
- The main carbon chain has ethyl groups (CH₂CH₃) on the first carbon and a methyl group (CH₃) on the last carbon.
