Chemistry: Matter and Change, Chapter 21, Problem 56A , additional homework tip  1

Explanation of Solution

Alkanes are compounds containing carbon and hydrogen atoms having single bond(s) between carbon atom(s) in the structure. For number of carbons atoms in alkane chain, the prefix is given as:

Carbon-1   meth

Carbon-2   eth

Carbon-3   prop    

Carbon-4   but      

Carbon-5   pent

Carbon-6   hex

Carbon-7   hept

Carbon-8   oct

Carbon-9   non     

Carbon-10       dec

The given name is heptane that means the parent chain has 7 number of carbons in the chain and there is no substituent in the chain. So, the structural formula of heptane is:
