(a)

Answer to Problem 30A
The name of the above compound is 2-pentene.
Explanation of Solution
The principle chain contains five carbon atoms and one double bond between C2 and C3. So, the name of the above compound is 2-pentene.
(b)
Interpretation:
The name of the given alkene has to be described.
Concept Introduction:
Alkenes are acyclic or cyclic unsaturated hydrocarbons containing at least one carbon-carbon double bond (C=C) and the general molecular formula CnH2n (where n = number of carbon atoms). Simplest alkene among all is ethylene C2H4 which contains one carbon-carbon double bond.
Alkenes can also be two types-
- Unbranched alkenes
- Branched alkenes
