So we have n-butane and we have isobutane and those are the two structural formulas for butane.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the Two Structural Formulas For Butane?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":{"0":"post-13381","1":"page","2":"type-page","3":"status-publish","5":"page_category-organic-chemistry-videos","6":"page_category-chemistry-shape-forms-videos","7":"page_type-video","8":"page_domain-science"},"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13381","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13381"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13381\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":53562,"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/13381\/revisions\/53562"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.mometrix.com\/academy\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13381"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
