Methylpropane is an isomer of

A

n-hexane

B

n-butane

C

n-propane

D

n-pentane

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Butane is an organic compound with the formula CH, that is an alkane with four carbon atoms. The term may refer to either of two structural isomers, n-butane or isobutane (also called "methylpropane"), or to a mixture of these isomers. In the IUPAC nomenclature, however, "butane" refers only to the n-butane isomer (which is the isomer with the unbranched structure).
