What is the correct name of the compound that is incorrectly named 1-chloro-3-pentyne?

The correct name of the compound is .

Further explanation:

The IUPAC naming of an organic compound is the systematic way to write the name of organic compounds. The IUPAC name has three parts: root name, suffix, and prefix. The carbon atom number present in the parent chain is represented by the parent chain. The functional group present in the organic compound is represented by suffix and the name and number of the substituent present on the parent chain are represented by the prefix. The IUPAC name of the organic compound can be as follows:

(substituent number) - (substituent name)(root name)(suffix)  

The incorrect name of compound is 1-chloro-3-pentyne. The structure according to incorrect name is attached in the image.

The organic compounds are named according to IUPAC. The steps to determine the correct IUPAC name of the compound is as follows:

Step 1: Firstly, we identify the longest continuous carbon chain.

The longest carbon chain in the given molecule consists of 5 carbon atoms. The two carbon atoms are bonded by triple bond, and therefore the functional group is alkyne. Therefore due to presence of 5 carbon atom and triple bond the name of the parent chain is pentyne.

Step 2: In this step, the parent chain must be numbered so that the position of the triple bond should get the lowest number. Therefore the triple bond in given molecule is in between second carbon and third carbon atom, and the name of chain will be 2-pentyne.

Step 3: In this step, we identify the substituent or branched group that is attached to the parent carbon chain.

In the given molecule, the chlorine (Cl) group is attached to the parent chain. As preference is given to carbon atom having triple bond the number of carbon atom to which chlorine group is attached will be 5th carbon atom in the parent chain.

Hence, the correct name of molecule is 5-chloro-2-pentyne.

answer is: naturally occurring solid, inorganic compound or element is mineral.

minerals usually have crystalline form, that means than crystal constituents (atoms, molecules or ions) are arranged in a highly ordered microscopic structure, forming a crystal lattice that extends in all directions.

for example magnetite is a mineral of iron oxide (fe₂o₃).

calcite is a carbonate mineral and the most stable polymorph of calcium carbonate (caco₃).

dolomite is an   carbonate mineral composed of calcium magnesium carbonate (camg(co₃)₂).

answer: any goods being imported from another country may be subject to issued by the federal government are tariffs

explanation:  

tariffs are a tax on anything that are imported from abroad. government use them to protect and boost their local industries and the thought is that they encourage consumers to buy local instead of importing and they will hope will protect jobs and economy in the country that implements them
