Step 1/2

Given,

Compound `->` `O c ta n e` `C8H18`Isomers `->` The compound which has the same molecular formula but a different structure.

Explanation:

In this isomeric structure arrangement of atoms and elements are different.

Step 2/2

`(I)` The molecular formula of this compound is `C8H18` abd this is an alkane.`(II)` The molecular formula of compound is `C8H14` and due to the presence of double bond. It is an alkene.

and not the isomer of octane.

`(III)` The molecular formula of compound is `C8H16` and due to the presence of triple bond. It is an alkyne. and not the isomer of octane.

Final Answer

So, option `(II)` and `(III)` are not the correct isomeric structure of octane.
