I was just wondering if we have to know any common names for coumpounds, or is it just iupac nomenclature. I mean any common names other than something like acetic acid. thanks.

You should remind yourself of those common names.

I haven't seen anything like that yet, but at times they will mention one in a synthesis problem, like propanal, but they usually give you a picture.

You will be responsible to names like isopropane and names such as that though.
