Here are the solutions to your chemistry questions:

1. Name the following compounds:

a) H3C−CH=CH−CH3\text{H}_3\text{C} - \text{CH} = \text{CH} - \text{CH}_3

  1. Identify the longest carbon chain containing the double bond.

    The chain has 4 carbons.

  2. Number the carbons to give the double bond the lowest possible number.

    The double bond is between the second and third carbons from either end.

  3. Name the compound based on the chain length and double bond position.

    The parent chain is butane, and with a double bond, it's butene. The double bond is at position 2
