Answer 1

CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₃ , it is alkane compound. This is because ---
1. Only carbon and hydrogen atoms are bonded in compound
2. all are single bonded
3. and compound formula (C₄H₁₀) like CₓH₂ₓ₊₂ , where x is natural number.

And we know,how to naming alkane family ,
If only one carbon atom ⇒ methane
If two carbon atoms ⇒ ethane
If three carbon atoms ⇒ propane
If four carbon atoms ⇒butane
If five carbon atoms ⇒ pentane and so on

here, number of carbon atoms in compound = 4
So, IUPAC name of given compound is $\bf{butane}$
