Current Question (ID: 21342)

Question:

$\text{The total number of secondary carbon atoms present in the given compound is:}$ $\text{CH}_3\text{C(CH}_3\text{)}\text{CH}_2\text{CH(CH}_3\text{)}\text{CH}_3$

Options:

1. 1 (Correct)
2. 2
3. 3
4. 4

Solution:

$\text{Hint: A carbon atom that is bonded to two other carbon atoms.}$ $\text{Explanation:}$ $(\text{i}) \text{Primary carbons (1°), are carbons attached to one other carbon and three hydrogens. Also known as a methyl (CH}_3\text{)}$ $(\text{ii}) \text{Secondary carbons (2°) are attached to two other carbons and two hydrogens. Also known as methylene (CH}_2\text{) carbons.}$ $(\text{iii}) \text{Tertiary carbons (3°) are attached to three other carbons and one hydrogen. Also known as methine (R}_3\text{CH) carbons.}$ $(\text{iv}) \text{Finally, quaternary carbons (4°) are attached to four other carbons.}$ $\text{In the given compounds, the carbon atoms are labeled as:}$ $\text{Only one carbon atom is a secondary carbon atom. Hence, option 1 is the correct answer.}$
