Draw a structure for each alkane. c. 4-ethyl-2,2-dimethylhexane

Video transcript

Hi everyone here we have a question asking what is the structure of the following al cane? So it tells us it's an al cane, which means we only have single bonds and it's a hexane. So they're going to be six carbons on our parent chain. So we're going to have one two, three 456 and we're just going to number those. And now we need to add our substitutes. So we have 34 di ethyl and ethyl is two carbons. So we need to add two carbons onto our third carbon and our fourth carbon. And now we have 24 Dimethyl, which means one carbon. So we're going to add that to our two and four. And now we're just going to add the rest of our hydrogen and that is our final answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.
