Compounds X and Y both have the formula C7H14.
Both X and Y react with one molar equivalent of hydrogen in the presence of a palladium catalyst to form 2-methylhexane.
The heat of hydrogenation of X is greater than that of Y.
Both X and Y react with HCI to give the same single C₂H₁5Cl compound as the major product.
