Answer 1

Answer:

4- Oxo pentanal

Explanation:

Reasons:

• Longest carbon chain is of 5 carbons, word root will be 'Pent-'.
• Aldehyde groups have a higher priority in functional group naming than ketone group, thus ketone group will be treated as a substituent
• Since aldehyde grp is main here, The secondary suffix is '-al'
• Since there are no double/triple bonds the primary suffix will be '-ane' and since 2 vowels can not be together it is changed to '-an'
• Primary prefix will be of the Ketone group and is present at 4th carbon. The primary suffix will be '4-Oxo'
