There are three main structural isomers of hexane. Here are their structures:
1. Normal hexane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH2–CH2–CH2–CH3
2. 2-Methylpentane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH2–CH3
3. 3-Methylpentane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH3
structures of isomer of hexane?

show all structures of isomer of hexane?
Apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Here are all the possible isomers of hexane:
1. Normal hexane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH2–CH2–CH2–CH3
2. 2-Methylpentane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH2–CH3
3. 3-Methylpentane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH3
4. 2,2-Dimethylbutane:
- Structure: CH3–CH(CH3)–CH(CH3)–CH3
5. 2,3-Dimethylbutane:
- Structure: CH3–CH(CH3)–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH3
6. 2,4-Dimethylpentane:
- Structure: CH3–CH(CH3)–CH2–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH3
7. 3,3-Dimethylpentane:
- Structure: CH3–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH2–CH(CH3)–CH3
These are the seven possible isomers of hexane. Each isomer differs in the arrangement of carbon and hydrogen atoms.
