Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The compound contains a benzene ring with a nitro group and a bromine atom at positions 4 and 3, respectively. The carbonyl group indicates that the compound is an acid. Thus, the correct IUPAC name is 3-bromo-4-nitrobenzoic acid. Option A is incorrect as it does not have a carboxylic acid functional group, and option B has the bromine and nitro groups in the wrong positions. Option C has the correct functional group but the wrong position of the bromine atom.
