  1. What is the systematic name for the following structure? 3,4,4-trimethylheptane
  2. There are 18 different alkane molecules that all have the molecular formula C 8 H 18. Molecules with the same molecular formula, but different atomic connections (structural formulas) are called "constitutional isomers". See how many different alkanes, all with the same formula (C 8 H 18 ) that you can draw. After you draw them, write their names. You can draw line bond, condensed, or skeletal structures (the key shows skeletal structures). octane 2 - methylheptane 3 - methylheptane 4 - methylheptane 2,2-dimethylhexane 2,3-dimethylhexane Continued on next page
