Answer:

3-methyl pentane

Explanation:

The longest chain of carbons is 5, so it will have the prefix pent-.

The first branch is on the 3rd carbon, and it is a 1 carbon branch. This means the branch will be called 3-methyl.

Now to find the suffix we need to count the carbons and the hydrogens. There are 6 carbons and 14 hydrogens, which follows the formula for an alkane ([tex]C{_n}H{_{n+2}}[/tex]). This gives it the suffix -ane.

Now we can name the compound:

3-methyl pentane

That is the answer
