    I've made this mistake so I wanted to clarify for those looking--adding an ethyl group tends to change the chain. For instance hexane. Adding an ethyl group to the a 3-carbon chain just creates a 4-carbon chain with two methyl groups. It looks different at first glance, but you always want to make sure to recount the longest chain. That being said, for heptane there are nine structural isomers.
