the naming format in the question is the one i am use to so it doeas seem correct!
however, i didn't quite get what your question was... could you perhaps elaborate a bit? x
The questions says the compound is called 2-methyl-2-iodopropanoic acid. If we are naming the functional and alkyl groups in alphabetical order, the name should be 2-iodo-2-methylpropanoic acid because i comes before m in the alphabet? i think?

i get the question now, ... alphabetically ordering... so yes, your answer does seem correct! : ) sorry for any confusion x
