Condensed structural formula for 3,5-diethyloctane?

Question

Could someone please show mw how to draw this? Thank you kindly!

Answer 1

da structure for 3,5 -Diethyloctane is :-

            CH3CH2CH2CHCH3CH2CHCH3C2H5

                        

bye!!! ^___^...*__*...;-))))!!!!!

Answer 2

CH3-CH2-CH(CH2-CH3)-CH2- CH(CH2-CH3)-CH2-CH2-CH2

Answer 3

Start the straight chain n-octane, a saturated hydrocarbon of eight carbon atoms, numbered in sequence as follows:

CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3

1.....2.....3....4....5.....6....7.......

Now replace one -H on each of carbons 3 and 5 with a -CH2CH3 group to get:

CH3CH2CH(CH2CH3)CH2CH(CH2CH3)CH2CH2CH3

(Added later: don't know why the '8' would not print under the last carbon...this site can be weird!)

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

           CH3-CH2-CH ( ethyl ) -CH2-CH(ethyl)-CH2-CH2-CH3  the CH3-CH2= ethyl groups are attached to the third from the left carbon and the fifth from the left carbon. The parent is an 8 carbon ( 8=oct) stayrated alkane

oct-ANE
