Step-by-step solution

11 steps

Here are the systematic names for the compounds:

Part i· 4 steps

CH2=C(CH3)CH3\text{CH}_2=\text{C}(\text{CH}_3)\text{CH}_3

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

    This chain has 3 carbons.

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

    The double bond is between C1 and C2.

  3. Identify the substituent.

    There is a methyl group (CH3\text{CH}_3) on C2.

  4. Combine the parts to form the name.

    The parent alkene is propene, and the methyl group is at position 2.
    Systematic name: 2-methylprop-1-ene\boxed{\text{2-methylprop-1-ene}} (or 2-methylpropene)

Part ii

pent-1-yne\text{pent-1-yne}

CH3CH2CH2C≡CH\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{C}\equiv\text{CH}

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

    This chain has 5 carbons.

  2. Number the chain to give the triple bond the lowest possible number.

    The triple bond is between C1 and C2.

  3. Identify the functional group.

    It is an alkyne.

  4. Combine the parts to form the name.

    The parent alkyne is pentyne, and the triple bond is at position 1.
    Systematic name: pent-1-yne\boxed{\text{pent-1-yne}}

Part iii

hexane\text{hexane}

CH3CH2CH2CH2CH2CH3\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3

  1. Identify the longest carbon chain.

    This chain has 6 carbons.

  2. Identify the functional group.

    It is an alkane (all single bonds).

  3. Determine the parent name based on the number of carbons.

    A 6-carbon alkane is hexane.
    Systematic name: hexane\boxed{\text{hexane}}
