Butane has 2 possible but decane has 75 possible isomers. Why are there more isomers for decane than butane?
Homework Answers
Butane only contains 4 carbon atoms, hence the single chain can be made of only two choices (3 carbon chain, having Carbon connected to second carbon chain)
So, only two isomers of Butane are possible, which are Butane and 2-methyl Propane
For decane, there are 10 carbons, atoms, so we can have 7,8,9,10 (carbon chains) with multiple CH3 substituted at different places to obtain different compounds.
Hence there are more isomers of decane than butane
Note - Post any doubts/queries in comments section.

Week 10- Constitutional isomers Constitutional isomers have the same molecular formula, but their atoms are bonded in different orders. These may be further distinguished as chain isomers, which differ only in hydrocarbon chain structure, positional isomers, which differ in the location of a functional group, and functional group isomers which differ in the nature of their functional groups. Typically chain and position isomers show only modest differences in their physical and chemical properties, while functional group isomers differ greatly from...
