Verified step by step guidance1
Identify the structural formula of each compound from the images provided. Each image represents a different hydrocarbon structure.
Count the number of carbon atoms in each compound and note the connectivity between them. This will help in identifying the branching.
Determine the degree of branching by identifying the number of carbon atoms that are connected to more than two other carbon atoms. A higher number of such carbon atoms indicates more branching.
Compare the degree of branching among the compounds. The compound with the most carbon atoms connected to three or more other carbon atoms is the most branched.
Select the compound with the highest degree of branching as the answer to the question.
