Answer 2

The name of the alkyne which is given in the question with structure is propyne as in that 3 carbon atoms are present.

What are alkynes?

Alkynes are those hydrocarbons in which triple bond is present between two adjacent carbon atoms.

In the given structure one triple bond is present between first two carbon atoms and then with this a single bonded carbon atom is also attached. As in the structure total three carbon atoms are present so prefix shoul be 'prop' and as this is an alkyne then name should be propyne.

• Propane is wrong because it is used with single bonded hydrocarbons.
• Propene is also wrong as it is used with double bonded hydrocarbons.
• Methyne is also wrong as it is not a word that make any sesne.

Hence name of compound is propyne.
