What would be the name of this compound?

2,3 Dimethyl hexane

Explanation:

First, start the count from which side is given the CH3 smallest number

first; the longest carbon chain in this compound is 6

and you don't have any double and triple bonds or functional groups so it is Hexane

you start to count from the right side to give the branch molecules the smallest number ..

CH3 = methyl

and you have 2 methyl in this compound ..

and 2 mean you must write ( Di )

you write the name in this way

2,3 Dimethyl hexane

hope this helps you.

stay safe ...

- calcium has greater affinity to bond with electron receptors than hydrogen does and hence, it has the ability to replace hydrogen in most of its compounds.

- lithium has 2 valence electrons in the product because it can make only 1 bond with hydrogen. beryllium has 4 valence electrons in the product because it can only make 2 bonds. it has fewer electrons than neon and can react with electron donors. each hydrogen has 2 valence electrons, the same as helium.

- the covalent bond formed between carbon and hydrogen is polar because carbon is more electronegative than hydrogen and it attracts the bonded electron pair closer to itself, thus giving hydrogen a partial positive charge.

- a hydrogen bond is a relatively weak bond that hydrogen atoms make with the electronegative atoms nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine.

so the best choice is a.) 2 calcium (ca) atoms
