Answer:

2,3 Dimethyl hexane

Step-by-step explanation:

First, start the count from which side is given the CH3 smallest number

first; the longest carbon chain in this compound is 6

and you don't have any double and triple bonds or functional groups so it is Hexane

you start to count from the right side to give the branch molecules the smallest number ..

CH3 = methyl

and you have 2 methyl in this compound ..

and 2 mean you must write ( Di )

you write the name in this way

2,3 Dimethyl hexane

hope this helps you.

stay safe ...
