Answer:
Methyl pentanoate.
Explanation:
Hello there!
In this case, according to the given information, we can see the correct structure will be:
O
||
CH3CH2CH2CH2COCH3
Which matches with the structure of an ester due to the -COO- functional group. In such a case, the first part of the name is in function of the right side of the ester, in this case, methyl, followed by the left side, pentanoate, as it has five carbon atoms and is an ester (similar to an inorganic salt, but organic) and therefore, the name will be methyl pentanoate.
Regards!
