The correct Answer is:
To determine which name is incorrect among the options provided, we need to analyze the names and their corresponding structures based on IUPAC nomenclature rules for hydrocarbons. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structures of the Given Names**: - **Propane**: The structure of propane is CH3-CH2-CH3, which is a three-carbon alkane. The name is correct. - **But-2-yne**: The structure of but-2-yne is CH3-C≡C-CH3. This indicates a triple bond between the second and third carbon atoms in a four-carbon chain. The name is correct. - **Pent-3-yne**: The structure of pent-3-yne is CH3-CH2-C≡C-CH3. This indicates a triple bond between the third and fourth carbon atoms in a five-carbon chain. The name is correct. - **But-1-yne**: The structure of but-1-yne is CH≡C-CH2-CH3. This indicates a triple bond between the first and second carbon atoms in a four-carbon chain. The name is correct. 2. **Check for Incorrect Naming**: - The name **Pent-3-yne** is indeed correct as it follows the IUPAC rules for naming hydrocarbons with a triple bond. - The name **But-1-yne** is also correct as it accurately describes the structure of the compound. 3. **Conclusion**: - The only name that is incorrectly stated in the context of the question is **Pent-3-yne**, which should not exist as a valid name for the structure described. The correct name would be **But-2-yne** for a four-carbon compound with a triple bond. ### Final Answer: The incorrect name among the options is **Pent-3-yne**. ---
