Answer : The correct option is, 2-ethylpentane

Explanation :

The IUPAC nomenclature of alkanes are :

  • First select the longest possible carbon chain.
  • For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.
  • A suffix '-ane' is added at the end of the name.
  • The numbering is done in such a way that first carbon of double bond gets the lowest number.
  • If two of more similar alkyl groups are present, then the words 'di', 'tri' 'tetra' and so on are used to specify the number of times these alkyl groups appear in the chain.

Hence, the name for given compound will be, 2-ethylpentane and the structure are shown below.

A fish is removed from a contaminated lake. You determine that a particular toxin (X) is present in its cells at concentration X
netineya [11]
The level of toxins in the fish's cell is equivalent to the level of toxins in the water. Therefore, in order to reduce the toxins further, we should replace the now contaminated water with clean water. After the level of toxins in the fish's cell stops reducing, we replace the water with clean water once again.
