Solution

The correct option is C -halocarbonyl, -oylhalide
Acid halide is -COX where X is a halogen like -COCl or -COBr

The prefix would be halocarbonyl- and the suffix would be -oylhalide

halo and oyl need to be replaced with the appropriate halogen like chlorocarbonyl- or -oylbromide.


This would be ethanoylchloride.
