A student adds bromine solution to a test tube containing an isomer of C3H6. After shaking the sample and exposing it to UV light, the student observes that the colour of the bromine solution changes from orange to clear. Provide a hypothesis for what happened in the test tube. What do you believe to be the structure of the original isomer, and what was the final product, if a reaction occurred?

- In an advanced analytical chemistry lab, a team analyzing a compound 'Q' known to be a structural isomer of octane (C8H18). To determine the specific structure of 'Q', a series of spectroscopic analyses are performed. The sequence of the analysis involves: Infrared (IR) spectroscopy, which indicates the absence of functional groups like alcohols, ketones, and carboxylic acids. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, showing signals indicative of only methyl and methylene groups, with no evidence of methine (CH) or quaternary carbon environments. Mass spectrometry (MS), revealing a fragmentation pattern consistent with branched alkane structures. Based on this sequence of analyses, what is the most likely structure of compound 'Q'?
