Hello, everyone. Today, we have the following problem. Give the name of the compound A cyclo ethyl hexane B ethyl cyclohexane, C propal cyclohexane or D cyclopropane. So the first step when naming compounds is to identify the parent chain or the longest carb continuous carbon chain, which we see here is this cyclic structure composed of six carbons. So this will have the name cyclo hexane. Next, we identify any substituents which are any groups or parts of the molecule that are not included in the parent name we see here that we have this ethyl group bound to this, this cyclohexane ring. So this will get the designation of ethyl. And because there's only one substituent, we do not have to necessarily assign a number to it. However, for all intents and purposes, we will just n number this cycle hexing structure starting with wine on that substituent. If we put these names together, the substituent followed by the parent name, we get our answer of B or Ethyl cyclohexane. And with that, we have solved the problem overall, I hope this helped. And until next time
