**Question 5**

The correct IUPAC name for the following compound is:

[Image shows a molecular structure with a double bond and substituents: Bromine (Br) attached to carbon in a double-bonded area, and Chlorine (Cl) as another substituent further away on the chain. There are branches off the main carbon chain.]

**Options:**

- (E)-2-Methyl-5-bromo-4-chloro-4-hexene
- (E)-2-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-3-hexene
- (Z)-2-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-3-hexene
- (Z)-2-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-2-hexene
- (E)-2-Bromo-3-chloro-5-methyl-2-hexene

**Diagram Explanation:**

The diagram represents a hydrocarbon chain featuring a halogenated substitute with a double bond, indicating possible stereochemistry (E/Z). The specific locations of Br and Cl, along with the double bond, need to be analyzed to determine the proper IUPAC name. Be sure to consider the longest carbon chain, the position of each substituent, and the stereochemical descriptor (E/Z).
