being heated with a solution of C2H5ONa in ethanol, compound A (C7H5Br) yielded a
mixture of two alkenes B and c. each having the molecular formula C7H14. Catalytic
hydrogenation of the major isomer B or the minor isomer C gives only 3-ethyl pentane.
Suggest structure for compound A. B and C consistent with observations.
