question 1 (1 point)\nmatch each hydrocarbon to its name.\n1. butane\n2. 2 - methylbutane\n3. propane\n4. 2 - methylpropane\n5. pentane

Answer

Brief Explanations:

Identify the number of carbon - atoms and the presence of methyl groups in each hydrocarbon structure. Butane has 4 carbon atoms in a straight - chain, 2 - methylbutane has 5 carbon atoms with a methyl group on the second carbon, propane has 3 carbon atoms, 2 - methylpropane has 4 carbon atoms with a methyl group on the second carbon, and pentane has 5 carbon atoms in a straight - chain.

Answer:

  1. 2 - methylpropane
  2. pentane
  3. propane
  4. 2 - methylbutane
  5. butane
