Answer:
1) 1,1,1-trichloropropane
2) 1,1,2-trichloropropane
3) 1,2,2-trichloropropane
4) 1,2,3-trichloropropane
Explanation:
For this question, we must remember that isomers are molecules that have the <em>same formula but different structure</em>s. For the formula we can draw a <u>linear chain of three carbons</u> and change the position of the chlorine atoms in the carbon chain.
With this in mind, if we put all the chlorine atoms on the same carbon we will get <u>1,1,1-trichloropropane</u>. If we change an atom from chlorine to carbon 2 we will obtain <u>1,1,2-trichloropropane</u>. If we move another chlorine atom to carbon two we will get <u>1,2,2-trichloropropane</u>. Finally, if we put a chlorine atom in each carbon we will obtain <u>1,2,3-trichloropropane</u>.
