Provide the structures and names of the chain isomers of the molecular formula $C_6H_{14}$ that contain only a methyl group as a substituent.
(N/A) The molecular formula $C_6H_{14}$ corresponds to hexane. The chain isomers that contain only a methyl group as a substituent are as follows:
| Structure | Name |
|---|---|
| $(i) \ CH_3-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH_2-CH_3$ | $2\text{-methylpentane}$ |
| $(ii) \ CH_3-CH_2-CH(CH_3)-CH_2-CH_3$ | $3\text{-methylpentane}$ |
