ANSWER:Step 1 of 6
Skeletal structure of a compound represents the atoms and the bonds between each atom present in the compound.
In the skeletal structure of the organic compounds are drawn using lines where each line represents the bond and the end point of a particular line represents the carbon atom.
Hydrogen atoms are not denoted explicitly while atoms other than carbon or hydrogen are represented in the skeletal structures.
(a)
The given compound consists of only carbon and hydrogen atoms.
The skeletal structure is drawn by considering the valency of the atoms present in the compound i.e., the structure should satisfy the valency of all the atoms present in it.
