A. `CH_(3)C(CH_(3))_(2)CH_(2)CH_(2)CH(CH_(3))_(2)`
B. `CH_(3)CH(CH_(3))CH_(2)CH(CH_(3))CH_(2)CH_(3)`
C. `CH_(3)C(CH_(3))_(2)CH(CH_(3))CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)`
D. `CH_(3)C(CH_(3))_(2)CH_(2)C(CH_(3))_(2)CH_(3)`

Answer 1

Correct Answer - C
`underset("2,2,3-Trimethylhexane")underset()(overset(1)CH_(3)-overset(CH_(3))overset(|2)underset(CH_(3))underset(|)C-overset(CH_(3))overset(|3)(CH)-overset(4)CH_(2)-overset(5)CH_(2)-overset(6)CH_(3))`
or `CH_(3)C(CH_(3))_(2)CH(CH_(3))CH_(2)CH_(2)CH_(3)`
