Explanation:
In order to do this, we need to use 3 reagents to get the final product.
The first one, and logic is the halogenation of the alkene. Doing this, with Br2/CCl4, we'll get an alkane with two bromines, one in carbon 2 and the other in carbon 3.
Then, the next step is to eliminate one bromine of the reactant. The best way to do this, is using sodium ethoxide in ethanol. This is because sodium ethoxide is a relatively strong base, and it will promove the product of elimination in major proportions rather than the sustitution product. If we use NaOH is a really strong base, and it will form another product.
When the sodium ethoxide react, it will form a double bond between carbon 1 and 2 (The carbon where one bromine was with the methyl, changes priority and it's now carbon 3).
The final step, is now use acid medium, such H3O+/H2O or H2SO4/H2O. You can use any of them. This will form an carbocation in carbon 2 (it's a secondary carbocation, so it's more stable that in carbon 1), and then, the water molecule will add to this carbon to form the alcohol.
See the attached picture for the mechanism of this.
Answer:
Alkanes with more than 3 carbons can show constitutional isomerism. They can be either linear or branched structures. This is categorized as chain isomerism. Butane is the smallest alkane to show such isomerism with 2 isomers.Alkanes with more than 3 carbons can show constitutional isomerism. They can be either linear or branched structures.

Explanation:
One thing that does not change is the chemical composition of water, which is still H2O. And maybe mass, if all of the particles remain inside the beaker, which was never mentioned in the question so I am not sure.
Answer:
Explanation:
2C₄H₁₀ + 13O₂ ⟶ 8CO₂ + 10H₂O
n/mol: 4.3
13 mol of O₂ react with 2 mol of 2C₄H₁₀
