Respuesta :

Propane has 3 structural isomers

Answer : The propane has only one isomer.

Explanation :

Isomers : It is defined as the compounds having same formula but different arrangement of the atoms in the molecule.

As we know that the propane is a saturated hydrocarbon that contains three carbon atoms and eight hydrogen atoms and the 3 carbon atoms bond together through the single bond.

The formula of propane molecule is, [tex]C_3H_8[/tex].

The structural formula of propane molecule is :

[tex]H_3C-CH_2-CH_3[/tex]

From this we conclude that, there is only one isomer possible for propane molecule.

Hence, the propane has only one isomer.
