The correct Answer is:
To determine which compound has one isopropyl group, we will analyze each of the given compounds by drawing their structures and identifying the presence of isopropyl groups. ### Step 1: Draw the structure of 2,2,3,3-tetramethylpentane - The name indicates a pentane backbone with four methyl groups at positions 2 and 3. - The structure is as follows: ``` CH3 | CH3--C--CH--C--CH3 | | CH3 CH3 ``` - This compound has no isopropyl groups. ### Step 2: Draw the structure of 2,2-dimethylpentane - The name indicates a pentane backbone with two methyl groups at position 2. - The structure is as follows: ``` CH3 | CH3--C--CH2--C--CH3 | CH3 ``` - This compound also has no isopropyl groups. ### Step 3: Draw the structure of 2,2,3-trimethylpentane - The name indicates a pentane backbone with three methyl groups at positions 2 and 3. - The structure is as follows: ``` CH3 | CH3--C--CH--C--CH3 | | CH3 CH3 ``` - This compound has no isopropyl groups. ### Step 4: Draw the structure of 2-methylpentane - The name indicates a pentane backbone with one methyl group at position 2. - The structure is as follows: ``` CH3 | CH3--C--CH2--C--CH3 | CH2 ``` - This compound has a branched structure that can be recognized as having one isopropyl group. ### Conclusion After analyzing all the compounds, the only compound that contains one isopropyl group is **2-methylpentane**. ### Final Answer The compound which has one isopropyl group is **2-methylpentane**. ---
