Hi, in the given problem, we are given structure of an organic compound as shown here.
00:07
We have to change the number of tertiary carbon atoms which are present in this compound out of the given options, a, b, c and d.
00:14
Now, first of all, let's understand what is a tertiary carbon atom.
00:17
A tertiary carbon atom represented as 3 degree carbon atom is that carbon, which is bonded to three other carbon atoms as shown here.
00:26
This is a tertiary carbon atom.
00:27
So we will write the structure of this compound and see the number of tertiary carbon atoms present.
00:33
We can write carbon bonded to one hydrogen and ch3 group here.
00:39
Then ch2, ch2, ch2, then ch bonded to ch.
00:52
And this is bonded to methyl group...
