HEY ✨FRND✨
HAVE A NYC DAY❗️❗️

CH3-CH2-COOH has 3 carbon atoms which qualifies it to be in the pro prefix in organic chemistry. The carboxylic group (COO) makes it be the oic group and the proton (H) makes it acidic. Hence the compound is propan-1-oic acid or simply propaoic acid
Therefore the IUPAC name is propanoic acid
Hope this helps
