Explanation
Hint: In a trivial system, The prefix "neo" is used when all but two carbons form a continuous chain, and these two carbons are part of a terminal tert-butyl group
Explanation:
In the trivial system of naming organic compounds, the names of compounds are dependent on the source of the organic compounds or their properties.
If the prefix is iso, then there will be one methyl group on the secondary carbon of the parent chain. And if the prefix is neo, then there will be two methyl groups on the secondary carbon of the parent chain.
Also, heptyl is there that means there are a total of $$7 \ C$$ present and the alcohol is primary.
Hence, Neo-heptyl alcohol is correctly represented as:
Correct Option: $$C$$
