1. While writing the IUPAC name, write the name of side substituent according to the alphabetical order. Eg: bromo is written before chloro and fluoro as B comes before C and F.

2. Always use a hyphen {-} between a number and a alphabet. Since Br is attached to first carbon and Cl Is also attached to first carbon i.e. it is written as 1-Bromo and 1-chloro.

3. Since there are 3 F present so it is written as trifluoro.

4. And at the last write the name of the longest hydrocarbon chain i.e. ethane of 2 carbons.
