Please help, Which molecule is shown below

Option B. 3–methylheptane.

Explanation:

To obtain the name of the compound given in the question above, we must

1. Determine the functional group of the compound.

2. Locate the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

3. Identify the substituent groups attached.

4. Locate the position of the substituent group attached by giving it the lowest possible count.

5. Combine the above to obtain the name.

Now let us name the compound given in the question above.

1. The compound is an alkane since it contains only single bond.

2. The longest continuous carbon chain is 7. Hence the parent name I the compound is heptane.

3. The substituent group attached is

—CH3 i.e methyl.

4. The substituent group attached is at carbon 3.

5. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

3–methylheptane.

nanotechnology is a powerful tool in biomaterials research as it creates numerous possibilities for the engineering of functional molecules. nano-bio refers to projected ability to incorporate biomimicry into various materials at nanoscale.  

"among the transition metal elements, manganese and zinc have a slight lowering of electronegativities. the reason behind this is that the nuclear charges of these elements are slightly weaker than the other transition metal elements due to the way their valence electrons are filled up. both manganese and zinc have their valence electrons filled up to the 4th shell with 1 pair of electrons (4s2) completely occupying it. although the electrons in the 3rd shell (3d) are yet to be paired since the outer most shell is filled up, the ability of the nucleus to attract electrons is lessened. hence,   the electronegativity (or the ability to attract electrons) is lessened."
