The skeletal formula for the given structure is C₃H₆BrCl. Hence, the correct option is option (C).
Skeletal formula is defined as the formula which shows the bond present between the atoms forming a compound.
Given skeletal formula is a condensed skeletal formula.
In this formula, the vertex or ends of a bond represents carbon atoms and rest of the positions are occupied by hydrogen atoms.
Carbon atom has a valency of 4 and it can bond to 4 other atoms only.
For the given structure,
Number of carbon atoms = 3
Number of hydrogen atoms = 6
Number of bromine atom = 1
Number of chlorine atom = 1
Hence, the chemical formula will be [tex]C_3H_6BrCl[/tex].
