Question

11 question (1 point) provide the correct iupac/systematic name for the following compound.

Explanation:

Step1: Identify the parent chain

The parent chain is a cyclohexane ring (6 - membered carbon ring with single bonds).

Step2: Identify the substituents and number the ring

We have a bromine ($\ce{Br}$) and a methyl ($\ce{-CH_3}$) group. To assign the lowest possible numbers to the substituents, we start numbering from the carbon atom that has the bromine and methyl groups attached. So, the carbon with $\ce{Br}$ and $\ce{-CH_3}$ is numbered as carbon - 1, and the methyl group is on carbon - 2 (since we number the ring in a way that gives the substituents the lowest locants).

Step3: Name the substituents and the parent chain

The substituents are bromo (for $\ce{Br}$) and methyl (for $\ce{-CH_3}$). We list the substituents in alphabetical order (bromo comes before methyl). The parent chain is cyclohexane. So, combining them, we get 1 - bromo - 2 - methylcyclohexane.

Answer:

1 - bromo - 2 - methylcyclohexane
