Answers For The Part 2

The document provides information on naming alkanes according to IUPAC nomenclature rules. It gives examples of naming 3 alkanes with varying carbon chain lengths and substituents: 3-methyl-5-propyloctane, 3,3,5-trimethylheptane, and 3,3-diethylpentane. It also gives the structural formulas for 3 other alkanes: 2,2,3-trimethyl-butane, 3-ethyl-2,2-dimethyl-hexane, and 2,3,4,5,6,7-hexamethyl-octane.
