Isomers of A: B, C, D and F. Identical to A: E

Work Step by Step

1. Compound A has 5 C's in a row, and a two-carbon branch on the 2º carbon. 2. All the compounds have the same amount of C and H atoms, therefore they can only be identical or isomers. - B has 6 C's in a row: Isomer - C has 6 C's in a row: Isomer - D has 6 C's in a row: Isomer - E has 5 C's in a row and a two-carbon branch on the 2º carbon: Identical - F has 7 C's in a row: Isomer
