Answer 2

Answer:

The substitute in the chain is named by replacing the ane in the alkanes with ly.

Explanation:

The naming of an alkane is done by adding the suffix ane to the root word.

The suffix ane is replaced by ly when a substituent is present in the chain.

For example, in the trivial system of nomenclature, the mono halogen derivatives of alkane are named the alkyl halides. The alkyl group is first named followed by the name of the halogen as a halide.

Monohydric alcohol is named alkyl alcohol. Their names are derived by using the word alcohol to the name of the alkyl group present in the molecule.
