Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
In this question, we have to follow the IUPAC rules. Lets analyze each compound:
a. 1-methylbutane
In this compound we have a chain of 5 carbons, so the correct name is <u>Pentane.</u>
b. 1,1,3-trimethylhexane
In this compound, we longest chain is made of 7 carbons, so, we have to use the name "heptane". Carbon one would be the closet one to the methyl group, so the correct name is <u>2,4-dimethylheptane.</u>
c. 5-octyne
In this case, carbon 1 would be the closet one to the triplet bond. With this in mind, the correct name is <u>oct-3-yne.</u>
d. 2-ethyl-1-propanol
In this compound, we longest chain is made of 4 carbons, so, we have to use the name "butane". Carbon one would be the carbon with the "OH" group, so the correct name is <u>2-methylbutan-1-ol.</u>
<u>e. 2.2-dimethyl-3-butanol</u>
In this case, carbon 1 would be the closet one to the "OH". With this in mind, the correct name is <u>3,3-dimethylbutan-2-ol.</u>
See figure 1
I hope it helps!
