Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation: The structures of the given compounds are to be drawn.
Concept introduction: Structure of any organic compound is drawn by following the sets of rules devised by IUPAC. Any structure denotes a particular compound. The root word determines the number of carbons while counting the longest carbon chain. Double of triple bond should be given lowest carbon number. If more than one substituent are present, prefixes like di, tri, tetra, etc. are used.
