(a)
Interpretation:
An acceptable name for the following ether should be determined:
Concept Introduction:
Ethers are molecules which have two alkyl groups bonded to the oxygen atom.
Simple ethers named based on their structure.
When ether nomenclature, both alkyl groups are named and arranged them according to the alphabetical order and at the end of the name word 'ether' should be added. Ethers which have identical alkyl groups, prefix di- should be added to the alkyl group.
When naming more complex ethers according to the

Interpretation:
An acceptable name for the following ether should be determined:
Concept Introduction:
Ethers are molecules which have two alkyl groups bonded to the oxygen atom.
Simple ethers named based on their structure.
When ether nomenclature, both alkyl groups are named and arranged them according to the alphabetical order and at the end of the name word 'ether' should be added. Ethers which have identical alkyl groups, prefix di- should be added to the alkyl group.
When naming more complex ethers according to the IUPAC nomenclature; one alkyl group is named as a hydrocarbon chain and the other part is named as a part of substituent bonded to that chain. The simpler alkyl group with the oxygen atom should name as an alkoxy substituent and the -yl suffix of the alkyl replaced with- oxy suffix. Remaining longest alkyl chain is named as an alkane by considering the alkoxy group as a substituent bonded to the main carbon chain.
