How to draw isomers of heptane. Practice drawing line-angle formulas and naming isomers of heptane. In this video, I’ll show you how to draw all the structural isomers of C₇H₁₆ (heptane). Each carbon atom will be bonded to enough hydrogen atoms to satisfy the tetravalency of carbon. . Even writing the hexane isomers (there are five) or isomers of heptane (there are nine) is not really difficult. Drawing isomers is a skill we should expect to develop in a Chemistry class. Isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structures. In the above diagram I have identified the skeletal formula structure of the 9 constitutional structural isomers of C 7 H 16, however if you include the two R/S isomer pairs, there are 11 isomers in total (see isomers 3 and 6) which have a chiral centre. Explore C7H16 isomers with this worksheet. Figuring out the pentanes is easy; there are only three isomers. In case you’re not sure what are isomers, they are basically structures that have the same chemical formula (same number of atoms) but are connected differently, therefore, having different structural formula. To draw heptane, arrange the carbon atoms in a linear fashion, connecting them with single bonds.
