Question

Another chem question I need help with (multiple choice)

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer to your question is letter B, 2-methylhexane.

Explanation:

Remember that for naming organic compounds first, we need to look for the largest chain of carbons.

In your example, the largest chain is horizontal and has 6 carbons.

Later, we need to circle all the branches, in your example there is only one branch located close to the left side

After that, we number the carbons of the main chain, starting in the corner with more branches, in your example we start from the first carbon on the left.

Finally, start naming the number of the carbon branch, later hte name of the branch and finally the name of the main chain.
