Alcohols: Structure, Naming, Boiling Point and Solubility // HSC Chemistry

This video introduces students to the organic functional group – alcohols. Alcohols have different structure, nomenclature and physical properties, such as melting and boiling point and aqueous solubility, when compared to hydrocarbons. ● investigate the structural formulae, properties and functional group including: – primary – secondary – tertiary alcohols ● explain the properties within and between the homologous series of alcohols with reference to the intermolecular and intramolecular bonding present – boiling and melting point – solubility in water – molar enthalpy of combustion What is an alcohol functional group? How to name alcohols in organic chemistry? What is the boiling point of alcohols? Are alcohols soluble? Hydrogen bonds in alcohols.
