Question
Chapter 1, Problem 38P
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Structural formulas for at least three constitutional isomers with molecular formula
Concept introduction:
Compounds having different structures but the same molecular formula are known as isomers.
Structural isomerism or constitutional isomerism is shown by different compounds having difference in the sequence of their atoms but the same molecular formula.

1N atom and 10 atom (not on same C)
In the following Lewis structure of [(CH3)2OH]*, every atom, bond and lone pair is positioned. To complete the
structure, drag the formal charge tags to the appropriate atom(s). Each marker may be used more than once,
or not at all. If an atom has a formal charge of zero, do not drag a tag to it.
When you drag the marker in, place the little crosshairs in the upper left corner of the marker directly
over the atom(s) in question (not above them).
