1 answer:

4 0

Answer: The chemical elements are made of atoms. Half of Dalton's symbols used letters inside a circle to represent the elements. Berzelius organized 47 elements with letters alone, and he based those letters not primarily on the English names, but on the Latin ones. Also Most of them have their first-second letter on them

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

In naming an alkane, the first thing we do is to obtain the parent chain by counting the number of carbon atoms in the chain.

When we obtain that, then we identify the substituents and number them in such a way that they have the lowest numbers. The compounds shown have the following names according to the order in which the structures appear in the image attached;

1. 2-methyl propane

2. 2,4-dimethyl heptane

3. 2,2,3,3-tetramethyl butane

4. 5-ethyl-2,4-dimethyl octane
