the correct IUPAC name of the compound is 1-Butanal.
<h3>What are IUPAC names?</h3>
It is a system of naming organic compounds based on the longest carbon-to-carbon single bonds. It does not matter whether these longest chains are continuous or in a ring.
Thus, when the compound with the chemical formula, CH3-CH2-CH2CHO is considered. The longest carbon-to-carbon chain is 4. The 1st carbon carries a functional group known as an aldehyde.
Aldehydes are equipped with the carbonyl group and have the general formula R−CH=O. They are also sometimes referred to as formyl.
Aldehydes are named after their parent alkane chains with a slight modification. The 'e' is replaced with 'al'
The aldehyde in this case has four carbons. This means that the parent alkane is Butane. Therefore, the name of the compound will be 1-Butanal.

Answer:
18,01528
Explanation:
Explanation:
the molar mass of the compound is 1502g/mol
Mass is equal to moles x molar mass, and the molar mass of C6H12 is 84, therefore the mass is 436.8 g, but 437 rounded to correct significant figures
