Since the isomers of pentane have different boiling points, they can be separated by techniques such as fractional distillation.
Distillation, recrystallisation, and chromatography can be used to separate diastereomers.
The three isomers of pentane have different structures,i.e.they r chain isomers.
Pentane
All pentane isomers have always 5 carbon atoms. Besides that, there are 12 hydrogens: C5H12, except cyclopentane (C5H10).
pentane
Methane, ethane and propane don't have isomers (confirmers are possible) , butanes are two n-butane and iso-butane, pentanes are three n-pentane, iso-pentane and neo-pentane.

There are 3 isomers of C5H12[pentane] They are 1st- N pentane, 2nd- Isopentane/Dimethylbutane, and 3rd Neopentane/Dimethylpropane

Methane, ethane and propane don't have isomers (confirmers are possible) , butanes are two n-butane and iso-butane, pentanes are three n-pentane, iso-pentane and neo-pentane.
There are (in total) 8 structural isomers of C5H11Br, from the 3 different 'pentanyl' hydrocarbon (-C5H11) isomers (n-pentane, iso-pentane and neo-pentane):3x in n-pentane: 1-, or 2-, or 3-Bromo-pentane4x in isopentane: 1-, or 2-, or 3-, or 4-Bromo-Methyl-butane1x in neopentane: 1-Bromo-diMethyl-propane
There are at least 5 CH3OCH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 methoxy pentane CH3CH2OCH2CH2CH2CH3 ethoxy butane CH3CH2CH2OCH2CH2CH3 propoxy propane CH3CH(CH3)O(CH3)CHCH3 diisopropyl ether CH3CH2CH2O(CH3)CHCH3 propyl isopropyl ether + CH3OCH2CH2CH2CH2CH3 methoxy pentane with isomers of the pentane chain CH3CH2OCH2CH2CH2CH3 ethoxy butane with isomers of the butane chain
12 isomers can be formed. 1-pentene cis-2-pentene and trans-2-pentene 2-methyl-1-butene 3-methyl-1-butene 2-methyl-2-butene 1,1-dimethylcyclopropane (1R, 2R)-1,2-dimethylcyclopropane (1S, 2S)-1,2-dimethylcyclopropane methylcyclobutane cyclopentane and ethylcyclopropane
Yes, there are three isomers with the formula C5H12: Pentane: CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3, Isopentane (2-methyl butane): (CH3)2CHCH2CH3, and neopentane (2,2-dimethyl propane): (CH3)4C
The bonds around each carbon atom are arranged tetrahedrally. Assuming that we have pentane and not one of its isomers, this results in a zig-zag chain.
