Write the structure of different isomeric alkanes corresponding to the molecular formula `C_(6)H_(14)`. Also give their `IUPAC` names. Strategy: Start with the longest contionous chain with no branching and go on increasing the number of branching by removing one, two, etc, `C` atoms from the longest chain and reattaching them, but do not attach them to the terminal `C` atoms.

Answer» `{:(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(3)),(" ""n-Hexane"):}`
(ii) `{:(CH_(3)-CH-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(3)),(" "|),(" "CH_(3)),(" ""2 Methlypentane"):}`
(iii) `{:(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH-CH_(2)-CH_(3)),(" "|),(" "CH_(3)),(" ""3 Methlypentane"):}`
(iv) `{:(CH_(3)-CH-CH-CH_(3)),(" "|" "|),(" "CH_(3)" "CH_(3)),(" ""2,3-Dimethylbutane"):}`
(v) `{:(" "CH_(3)),(" "|),(CH_(3)-C-CH_(2)-CH_(3)),(" "|),(" "CH_(3)),(" ""2,2-Dimethylbutane"):}`
