Which branched chain isomer of the hydrocarbon with molecular mass `72mu` gives only one isomer of mono substituted alky halide ?

A

Tetrtiary butyl chloride

B

neopentane

C

Isohexane

D

Neohexane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Molar mass of `C_(n)+H_(2n+2)`
`72=12n+(2n+2)therefore n=5`
Since it gives only a single of `C_(5)H_(11)Cl` hence
