The main difference between common name as IUPAC name is that
Common name is usually expressed on the source of the origin of compound
While
IUPAC name is expressed by taking general rules
Eg CH4
Common name(Trivial)- Marsh gas as it is originated usually from swampy areas
IUPAC name- Methane , coz it is an alkane having one carbon atom that's why Meth is used.
Another Example- CH3COOH
TRIVIAL NAME- ACETIC ACID
IUPAC NAME- ETHANOIC ACID
