Interpretation:
The appropriate ending to the IUPAC name of the oxalic acid is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The systematic naming of organic compound is given by
Rules for writing IUPAC name from the structural formula are:
• First identify the longest carbon chain.
• The next step is to identify the functional groups attached to the longest chain.
• Identify the position, location, and a number of the substituent bonded to the carbon chain.
• Use prefix di, tri, tetra if the same type of substituent is present.
