(a)
Interpretation:
All the constitutional isomers that have the molecular formula
Concept Introduction:
Steps to draw the constitutional isomers
Given molecular formula
Carbon is tetravalent and hydrogen is monovalent.
Since Carbon is tetravalent, it has to be connected first as given below,
The atom that has more than one bond is carbon and it should be drawn in the center of the compound.
On placing the hydrogen atom at the periphery, the isomers will be

Concept Introduction:
Steps to draw the constitutional isomers
Given molecular formula
Carbon is tetravalent, chlorine and hydrogen is monovalent.
Since Carbon is tetravalent, it has to be connected first as given below,
The atom that has more than one bond is carbon and it should be drawn in the center of the compound.
Here chlorine can be placed only at positions, i.e. connected to any one of the carbon.
On placing the hydrogen atom at the periphery, the isomer will be
