Alkenes & Alcohols: The Smallest Alcohols 🧪 GCSE Chemistry Learning & Revision
In this episode, we discuss alcohol and the smallest alcohols.
Alcohols are organic compounds characterised by the presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH). They form a homologous series with a general chemical formula of CnH2n+1OH.
The episode specifically outlines the four smallest members of this series.
These are presented in order of increasing size: methanol (CH3OH), ethanol (CH3CH2OH), propanol (CH3CH2CH2OH), and butanol (CH3CH2CH2CH2OH).
The information therefore serves as a basic introduction to the structural features and initial members of the alcohol family.
