1) The chemical name of CH3COCH3 is propanone
You should count number of carbon atoms in the chain.
In the above formula, since the number of carbon atoms is 3, it is propane.
In addition O is also present in the form of ketone group.
Therefore suffix, one is added to the IUPAC name
2) C2H3COOH
There are two carbon atoms in the chain; therefore ethane should be used in the name
Hence the IUPAC name is Prop-2-enoic acid
