Answer:
We will have zero bonds
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, we have to start with the structure of 4,5-diethyloctane. This name ends with the suffix "ane" therefore we have an alkane. All the alkanes are made with single bonds between carbons and single bonds between carbon and hydrogen.
The molecule will have a carbon chain of eight carbons and we will have 2 branches, one ethyl on carbon 4 and another ethyl on carbon 5. (see figure 1)
