Answer : The name of the given hydrocarbon is, 2-methylpropane

Explanation :

The rules for naming of alkanes are given as follows :

First select the longest possible carbon chain and number them.
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.
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 hydrocarbon will be, 2-methylpropane

Answer:

With Br2 - Bromobenzene

With Cl2 - Chlorobenzene

With HNO3- Nitrobenzene

With H2SO4 - Benzenesulphonic acid

With HCOCl - Benzoyl chloride

With 1-chloro-2,2-dimethylpropane - 2,2dimethyl-1-phenyl propane

Explanation:

The common thread joining all these reactions is that they are all electrophillic reactions. They are so called because the attacking agents in each reagent is an electrophile. Electrophiles are species that have electron deficient centers and are known to attack molecules that are high in electron density at regions of high electron density.

The benzene molecule has rich electron density. Any substituents that donates electrons to the ring improves the likelihood that benzene will undergo electrophillic substitution reactions while electron withdrawing substituents decrease the likelihood that benzene will undergo electrophillic substitution reactions.

The names of the compounds formed when benzene undergoes electrophillic reaction with the attacking agents listed in the question are displayed in the answer section.
