The video tutorial explains how to write the structural formula for one bromobutane. It starts by identifying the molecular formula C4H9Br and discusses the arrangement of atoms in the structural formula. The tutorial highlights the significance of the 'butane' suffix, indicating a four-carbon chain with single bonds. It then details the placement of the bromo group on the first carbon, resulting in the structural formula for one bromobutane. The video concludes with a look at the molecular model and condensed notation.
