Hexane has five total Isomers: - Hexane is a straight chain of six carbon atoms:

CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 - 2-Methylpentane, also called Isohexane, has a five carbon chain with one methyl branch on the second group:

-CH3CH(CH3)CH2CH2CH3 -3-Methylpentane has a five Carbon chain with a Methyl branch on the Third group:

-CH3CH2CH(CH3)CH2CH3 -2/3-Dimethylbutane has a four carbon chain with one Methyl branch on the both the Second and Third branch:

-CH3CH(CH3)CH(CH3)CH3 -2/2-Dimethylbutane, also called Neohexane, has a four carbon chain with two Methyl groups on the Second branch:

-CH3C(CH3)2CH2CH3

2-methyl hexane ; 3-methyl hexane ; 2,3-dimethyl pentane ; 2,4-dimethyl pentane ; 2,2,3-trimethyl butane...
The nine isomers of heptane are:

n-heptane (or normal heptane)

2-methylhexane

3-methylhexane

2,2-dimethylpentane

2,3-dimethylpentane

2,4-dimethylpentane

3,3-dimethylpentane

3-ethylpentane

And 2,2,3-trimethylbutane
