All the structures shown here have the molecular formula C8H18. Which structures are the same molecule? (Hint: One way to answer this question is to determine the chemical name for each structure)
Olin- CHEM 240 Lecture Introductory Lecture- 1/20/16 Chemistry is the study of matter and the transformations of matter from one form to another; this includes composition, structure, properties, and state changes of matter. Atoms are the smallest building blocks of matter. The Scientific Method is a process which includes: making observations, stating a hypothesis, and performing experiments to test the hypothesis. A Hypothesis is a tentative explanation of observations that requires further experiment. Qualitative Data- data based on the qualities of what is being observed.
