Document Summary

Alcohols are organic compounds or hydrocarbon derivatives that feature a hydroxyl (-oh) group where a hydrogen atom would have been in a hydrocarbon. Methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol, pentanol, hexanol, heptanol, octanol, nonanol, and decanol are some examples of alcohol. Phenols are compounds with a -oh group directly linked to a benzene ring. A functional group is an atom or group of atoms that have been linked together in a certain way that, as part of a molecule, will impart particular physical and chemical properties to the molecule. Strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds may develop between alcohols and phenols, with one hydrogen replaced by an aliphatic (r-oh) group in the alcohols and an aromatic (ar-oh) group in the phenols. Alcohols may establish hydrogen bonds with one another because they have a -oh group. There are three types of alcohol: primary, secondary, and tertiary. Alcohols are classified based on whether the alcohol carbon is bonded to one, two, or three alkyl groups.
