Expand the following bond-line representations to show all the atoms including carbon and hydrogen.

Sample Solution (a) There is a carbon at each bend in the chain and at the ends of the chain. Each of the ten carbon atoms bears the appropriate number of hydrogens to give it four bonds.

Alternatively, the structure could be written as CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 or in condensed form as CH3(CH2)8CH3.
