Solution

The total number of carbon atoms in 6-ethyl-2-octyne can be calculated as follows:

  • "Oct" in octyne indicates that there are 8 carbon atoms in the main chain.
  • "Ethyl" is a substituent group that contains 2 carbon atoms.
  • Therefore, the total number of carbon atoms is 8 (from the octyne) + 2 (from the ethyl group) = 10.

So, the correct answer is b. 10.
