Three compounds A, B and C all have the formula C5H10. A and B rapidly decolourise bromine dissolved in CH2CL2 but compound C is unreactive.

Compound A reacts rapidly with acidified water and a tertiary alcohol D is formed; however compound B yields a secondary alcohol.

(a) Draw a possible structure for each of A, B and C

(b) Are other structures possible for A, B and C, i know there are so could u plz draw them.

and last but not least

(c) Could u also formulate the reaction A --> to D and give mechanism of reaction.
