Which of the following IUPAC names is correctly written ?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

The chain must be numbered so the double bond gets the lowest locant, so '4-pentene' should be pent-1-ene and '3-methyl-3-butene' should be 2-methylbut-1-ene.

2-Methylbut-2-ene has no cis/trans isomers. (E)-pent-2-ene is correct.
