Well, it's an olefin with a $C = C$ $C=C$ bond.......

Explanation:

And we could draw the molecular formula as.......

$H_{3} 1 C - 2 C H = 3 C H 4 C H_{2} 5 C H_{2} 6 C H_{2} 7 C H_{2} 8 C H_{3}$ $H_3stackrel(1)C-stackrel(2)CH=stackrel(3)CHstackrel(4)CH_2stackrel(5)CH_2stackrel(6)CH_2stackrel(7)CH_2stackrel(8)CH_3$

At $2 C$ $stackrel(2)C$ we insert the olefinic bond, the so-called site of unsaturation. And we note that molecule would support geometric isomerism in that the double bond generates cis and trans isomers about $C_{2}$ $C_2$ , $C_{3}$ $C_3$ .

What would we call......

$H_{2} 1 C = 2 C H_{2} 3 C H_{2} 4 C H_{2} 5 C H_{2} 6 C H_{2} 7 C H_{2} 8 C H_{3}$ $H_2stackrel(1)C=stackrel(2)CH_2stackrel(3)CH_2stackrel(4)CH_2stackrel(5)CH_2stackrel(6)CH_2stackrel(7)CH_2stackrel(8)CH_3$

Would this molecule be isomeric?
