All Carbons in the compound-xA0-are saturated- thus it is an Alkane- the suffix is -x2212-ane-xA0-The compound has 5C-xA0-in the longest chain -Prefix is Pent-xA0-with 2 substitutes a methyl group bonded with C2 and-xA0-an ethyl group bonded to the-xA0-C-x2212-3-xA0- Hence it is named-xA0-3-x2212-Ethyl-x2212-2-x2212-methylpentane-xA0-

Write the IUPAC name of the given compound.

All Carbons in the compound are saturated, thus it is an Alkane, the suffix is −ane. The compound has 5C in the longest chain (Prefix is Pent) with 2 substitutes a methyl group bonded with C2 and an ethyl group bonded to the C−3 . Hence it is named 3−Ethyl−2−methylpentane.
