Chapter 11, Problem 11A.6E

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The name of the substituent ${\text{CH}}_{\text{3}}{\left({\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}\right)}_{\text{7}}{\text{CH}}_{\text{2}}\text{-}$ has to be given.

Concept Introduction:

Alkanes:  Saturated hydrocarbons are called as alkanes.  Each atom in an alkane shows the presence of four single bonds in a tetrahedral arrangement with ${\text{sp}}^{\text{3}}$ hybridization.  The name of alkane ends with “-ane”.

Alkyl:  Alkyl substituent is alkane missing one hydrogen.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction
