Answer:

             No, 4-isopropyl-2,5-dimethyl-2-hexene is not chiral.

Explanation:

                    Chiral compounds are those compounds which contains atleast one chiral carbon. Chiral carbon is that carbon to which all the four attached atoms or group of atoms are different inn nature on the basis of their atomic or molecular mass.

Examples of Chiral compounds are;

                                  1) 1-bromo-1-fluoro-1-iodoethane

                                  2) chlorofluoroiodomethane

                                  3) 2-fluorobutane

The structure of 4-isopropyl-2,5-dimethyl-2-hexene is attached below. As the structure doesn't contain any stereo-center therefore this compound is not chiral in nature.
