Help with naming please
The image depicts a chemical structure for an educational exercise. The task involves providing the IUPAC name for the compound, determining if it has E, Z, or R, S stereochemistry, and the structure's molecular formula is given as C₈H₁₄.

Key points in the structure:
- The backbone is an alkene with two chlorine (Cl) atoms attached to the double-bonded carbons.
- The double bond is between carbons 2 and 3.
- There are longer carbon chains (propyl groups) attached to the double-bonded carbons.
- The carbon chain is numbered from right to left: 
  - Carbon 1 starts with a CH₂CH₂CH₃ group,
  - Carbon 4 has a CH₃ group attached.

Additional annotations:
- The words "5-bromo" are written, although it seems not directly tied to the visible structure.
- Numbering on the side suggests a step in identifying the longest chain and other branches.

This layout illustrates an example of how to name alkenes and determine stereo configurations by analyzing the molecular structure.
