The figure shows the skeletal structure in line-angle (line-bond) mode of 2,5-dimethylhexa-1,4-diene. Identify the number of hydrogen atoms bound to each carbon atom in the structure.

There are 22 hydrogen in 2,3,3,5-tetramethylhexane (C10H22)

From the left to the right of the skeletal structure:

1st Main Carbon = 3 hydrogen

2nd Main Carbon = 1 hydrogen

1st Branch Carbon = 3 hydrogen

3rd Main Carbon = 2 hydrogen

2nd Branch Carbon = 3 hydrogen

3rd Branch Carbon = 3 hydrogen

4th Main Carbon = 0 hydrogen

4th Branch Carbon = 3 hydrogen

5th Main Carbon = 1 hydrogen

6th Main Carbon = 3 hydrogen

Total = 22 hydrogen

Explanation:

This is the skeletal formula for 2,3,3,5-tetramethylhexane - the 2D chemical structure. It is an organic compound. The carbon atoms in the structure are known as the carbon backbone. The hydrogen atoms are linked to the carbon backbone. This provides each carbon atom with four bonds.
