Answer:

A) 2-pentene

Step-by-step explanation:

We count from side where we encounter double bond closest so that's going to be from left to the 2nd carbon. Total carbons are 5.

Thus pent- for prefix of 5 carbons and -ene as suffix for double bond.

2- for locant of double bond.

Thus, 2-pentene
