Stephany Farley · Answer 1

It is a linear chain.

It has one double bond, so it is an alkene

It has 9 carbon atoms, so it is a nonene.

Number the carbons so that the double bond is the closer to the first carbon.

As the double bond is in the first carbon, you name it 1-nonene.

Answer: 1-nonene
