What should be identified first for naming carbon compounds?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Longest carbon chain and functional group

Systematic naming begins by identifying the parent carbon chain, usually the longest continuous chain containing the principal functional group. Its number of carbon atoms gives the root name, such as meth-, eth-, or prop-. The functional group determines the suffix and the compound’s class, for example -ol for an alcohol or -oic acid for a carboxylic acid. Colour, smell, and mass do not establish the IUPAC name, so A is correct.
