can anyone answer that? I know someone posted 5 of them already but I wasn't sure if that was all of them so if anyone knows how to do this and could post EVERY isomer of C4H8, that would be great

I can find only four...and trying to draw structures on this site is v frustrating...so
1. 1-butene...straight 4-carbon chain...CH2=CHCH2CH3
2. 2-butene...CH3CH=CHCH3
3. methyl-propene...CH2=CCH3CH3...same molecule wherever the dbl bond is located.
3. cyclobutane...a square with a carbon atom making each corner...-CH2CH2CH2CH2-
4. methyl-cyclopropane...a triangle (carbon at each corner) plus a -CH3 attached to any one of them...-CH2CHCH3CH2-
Added later...borrowing from the moose :-))
5. The other cis/trans isomer of 2-butene.
...and I'm willing to bet a dime that there are no more.

Compounds of formula C4H8 either have a double bond or a ring. Methylcyclopropane is the cyclic compound which fits. In the case of a double bond you either have 1- butene or 2 butene. In the case of 2 you can have geometric isomers (cis/trans) at the double bond - so the answer is four.

what if the question is, How many isormers are there for the alkene C4H4 ? i read it is 4 but i cant find the forth...

CH3CH2CH2CH3 n-Butane
CH3CH(CH3)CH3 2-Methylpropane
There are 5 isomers of some higher hydrocarbon.
