This is 2-butene where do I insert the HI for hydroiodic aci?
What would be the whole name of 2-butene and hydroiodic acid. Or the diagram.

As I suggested two days ago, you add it across the double bond. That is, break the double bond so you have a single bond to single bond C, then to the left C place the H from HI and to the right C place the I so you will have CH3CH2CHICH3. I would then name that compound as 2-iodobutane.
