e. The name 1,3-dimethylcyclopropane is correct. The structure is a three-carbon ring (cyclopropane) with a methyl group (CH3) attached to the first and third carbon.
f. The name 1-methyl-2-ethylcyclopropane is correct. The structure is a three-carbon ring (cyclopropane) with a methyl group (CH3) attached to the first carbon and an ethyl group (C2H5) attached to the second carbon.
g. The name 3-methyl-1,3-butadiene is incorrect. The correct name should be 2-methyl-1,3-butadiene. The structure is a four-carbon chain with two double bonds (butadiene) and a methyl group (CH3) attached to the second carbon.
h. The name 3-butuna is incorrect. The correct name should be 1-butyne. The structure is a four-carbon chain with a triple bond between the first and second carbon.
i. The name 2,3-fluoropropane is incorrect. The correct name should be 2,2-difluoropropane. The structure is a three-carbon chain (propane) with two fluorine atoms attached to the second carbon.
j. The name 4-bromo-3-methylbutane is correct. The structure is a five-carbon chain (butane) with a bromine atom attached to the fourth carbon and a methyl group (CH3) attached to the third carbon.
