Solution

The structure of 1-Bromo-2,2-dimethyl propane is (CH3)3CCH2Br. So, the correct answer is A.

Here's why:

1-Bromo-2,2-dimethyl propane is an organic compound. The name of the compound gives us information about its structure.

1-Bromo indicates that there is a bromine atom (Br) attached to the first carbon atom in the main chain of the compound.

2,2-dimethyl indicates that there are two methyl groups (CH3) attached to the second carbon atom in the main chain.

Propane indicates that the main chain of the compound consists of three carbon atoms.

So, putting it all together, we have a bromine atom attached to the first carbon atom, and two methyl groups attached to the second carbon atom. The remaining carbon atoms are assumed to be bonded to hydrogen atoms, as is typical in organic compounds. This gives us the structure (CH3)3CCH2Br.
