. What prefixes would be used in the systematic name of an alkane to indicate that the alkane contained the following numbers of methyl branches?
a. two
c. five
b. four
d. three
Interpretation:
The prefix used for systematic name of an alkane that contain two number of methyl branches should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Alkanes are hydrocarbons that is they contain only carbon and hydrogens attached by single bonds only. The general formula for alkane is Cn H2 n + 2, where n is number of carbon atoms.
Alkanes are compounds containing only carbon and hydrogen atoms bonded through single atoms only. For number of carbons atoms in alkane chain, the prefix is given as:
Carbon-1 meth
Carbon-2 eth
Carbon-3 prop
Carbon-4 but
Carbon-5 pent
Carbon-6 ...
Interpretation:
The prefix used for systematic name of an alkane that contain four number of methyl branches should be determined.
