This molecule is ethylamine. The parent carbon chain is an eth- chain (because it has two carbons) and there is an amine group attached (-NH2) so it's ethylamine.

Answer: ethylamine

Explanation: The given compound contains a -[tex]NH_2[/tex] functional group which represents amines.

Also the compound contains two carbon atoms and thus the word root is -eth. As one of the hydrogen from ethane[tex]C_2H_6[/tex] is missing, the name changes to ethyl [tex]C_2H_5[/tex].

The naming starts with the longest carbon chain and ends with the functional group.

Thus the name is ethylamine.

-al is used for aldehydes. -oic acid is used for carboxylic acids and -oate is used for esters.
