Answer 2

The name of following compound $CH_3CH_2CH_2I$ is 1-iodo propane

Explanation:

1. First select the longest possible carbon chain.  For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.

2. The longest possible carbon chain should contain all the bonds and functional groups.

3. The naming of alkane is done by adding the suffix -ane, alkene by adding the suffix -ene, alkyne by adding the suffix -yne.

4. The numbering is done in such a way that the carbon containing the functional group gets the lowest number.

As the substituent is iodo and there are 3 carbon atoms thus the name is 1-iodo propane
