Interpretation:
The structural formulas for any two isomers of hexane are to be drawn.
Concept Introduction:
Hydrocarbons are the organic compounds which contain only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
Isomers are the compounds which have the same molecular formula but different arrangement of the atoms in space.
The structural formula is a two-dimensional representation, which gives the information about the atoms that are bonded together and the atoms that are not bonded.
The general molecular formula for the alkane is
