Answer:

The following compound is an ether.

Because, the two alkyl groups across the heteroatom here that is the oxygen atom are both ethyl groups this is also classified as a symmetric ether.

Now,

the IUPAC name of any ether is given as

alkoxy alkane where alkane is assigned to the longer chain and alkoxy to the smaller chain.

Here, since both the alkyl groups are same it wouldn't matter.

And, hence according to the rule, the IUPAC name of the given compound will be ethoxy ethane.

And, more commonly but not IUPAC name, this is also called as diethyl ether.

Hope this helps you !
