The molecular formula of butane is C4H10. It is obtained from petroleum and is used commonly in LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas) cy
linders (a common source of cooking gas). It has two arrangements of carbon atoms: a straight chain and a branched chain. Using this information, draw the structure of the tertiary butyl radical that will form upon removal of a hydrogen atom.

Answer:
Explanation:
Butane is an alkane and has no multiple bond in it.
The isomers of butane are
a) n-butane
b) t-butane
The structures are shown in the figure.
The most stable radical will be tertiary butyl radical.
The structures are shown in figure.
Answer:
On the attached document.
Explanation:
Hello,
At first, if we're looking for the tertiary arrangement we must consider butane's branched structure which is shown on the attached document whose name is tert-butane. Afterwards, one must remove one hydrogen to let the tert-butyl radical, which is stood for a dot above the tertiary carbon, to be formed.
Best regards.
