there is a total of seventeen constitutional isomers for the molecular formula c5h13n. draw the skeletal formula of all three co
nstitutional isomers that are tertiary amines.
1 answer:
Amines are derivatives of Ammonia (NH₃) in which atleast one hydrogen atom is replaced by an alkyl group. Amines are further classifies as;
Primary Amines:
In primary amines the nitrogen atom is attached to two hydrogen atoms and one alkyl group.
Secondary Amines:
In secondary amines the nitrogen atom is attached to two alkyl groups and one hydrogen atom.
Tertiary Amines:
In tertiary amines the nitrogen atom is attached to three alkyl groups, hence it has no hydrogen atom.
Below are three isomers of tertiary amines with molecular formula C₅H₁₃N.

Explanation:
Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value or the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.
Rules for significant figures:
Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.
All non-zero numbers are always significant.
All zero’s between integers are always significant.
All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant.
All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant.
Thus has three significant figures
