The question presents a structural formula and asks: "What is the IUPAC name of the molecule below?"**Structure:**The molecule is depicted with a chain of carbon (C) and hydrogen (H) atoms, along with functional groups:- The longest continuous carbon chain shown has eight carbon atoms.- There is a carboxylic acid group (COOH) at one end.- Two methyl groups (CH₃) are branching off the main chain.**Options Given:**a. octanoic acid b. 6-ethyl-4-methylhexanoic acid c. 4,6-dimethyloctanoic acid d. 3,5-dimethyloctanoic acid Students are required to select the correct IUPAC name based on the structure provided. The key is to correctly identify the main carbon chain and the positions of any branches or functional groups, and then name the compound according to IUPAC naming conventions.

In IUPAC nomenclature, first numbering of the longest carbon chain is done in such a way that…
