(a)
Interpretation:
The systematic name for the following compound should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Compounds consisting of carbon and hydrogen are known as hydrocarbons. Saturated hydrocarbon is known as alkane having general molecular formula
Rules of naming
- First, choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms known as the parent chain and determines the base name of the alkane.
- The numbering of the parent chain should be done in a way that the substituents get the lowest number.
- The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number.
- The alkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.
(b)
Interpretation:
The systematic name for the following compound should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Compounds consisting of carbon and hydrogen are known as hydrocarbons. Saturated hydrocarbon is known as alkane having general molecular formula
Rules of naming alkanes are:
- First, choose the longest continuous chain of carbon atoms known as the parent chain and determines the base name of the alkane.
- The numbering of the parent chain should be done in a way that the substituents get the lowest number.
- The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number.
- The alkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.

The compounds in which a series of atoms are connected to form a ring is known as cyclic compound whereas the compounds which are open chain compounds and their atoms don't form a ring is known as acyclic compounds. The general molecular formula of a cyclic alkane is
Rules of naming cycloalkanes are:
- First, determine the cycloalkane present in the structure which is considered as a parent chain (maximum number of carbon atoms). If the acyclic alkane chain has more carbon atoms, then the alkyl chain is considered a parent chain.
- For a cyclic system, the number of carbon atoms must be identified as present in different paths connected with two bridgeheads.
- The numbering of the parent chain should be done in a way that the substituents get the lowest number.
- The appropriate name should be given to every alkyl group or cycloalkyl group and denote its position on the parent chain with the number
- The alkyl groups or cycloalkyl groups are written in alphabetical order.

- Identify the missing organic reactants in the following reaction: X + Y H+ two steps Note: This chemical equation only focuses on the important organic molecules in the reaction. Additional inorganic or small-molecule reactants or products (like H2O) are not shown. In the drawing area below, draw the skeletal ("line") structures of the missing organic reactants X and Y. You may draw the structures in any arrangement that you like, so long as they aren't touching. Click and drag to start drawing a structure.
