### Drawing Structures Based on IUPAC Names

#### Instructions:
Be sure to answer all parts.

**Task:** Draw the structure corresponding to each IUPAC name.

#### Problem:

**a. 3,3-dimethyl-1,4-pentadiene**

*Expected Structure:*

The image shows the correct structure corresponding to the IUPAC name "3,3-dimethyl-1,4-pentadiene." It includes a skeletal formula of a pentadiene (a five-carbon chain with two double bonds at positions 1 and 4) with two methyl groups (CH₃) attached to the third carbon. This structure is within a green-bordered box with a green check mark indicating correctness.

**edit structure** ...

**b. trans-5-methyl-2-hexene**

*Expected Structure:*

The image shows an incorrect structure for "trans-5-methyl-2-hexene." The depicted structure shows a hexene (a six-carbon chain with one double bond at position 2) with a methyl group (CH₃) attached to the fifth carbon, but it does not demonstrate the trans configuration correctly. This structure is within a red-bordered box with a red "X" mark indicating incorrectness.

**edit structure** ...

For the correct structure of **trans-5-methyl-2-hexene**, the illustrated formula should accurately depict the trans configuration, showing the substituents (in this case, the hydrogen and the methyl group) on opposite sides of the double bond.
