Write the molecular formula of first two members of homologous series having functional group – OH
उत्तर
The general formula for the homologous series of functional group −OH is CnH2n+1OH.
The two consecutive members of this series are:
a. CH3OH(Methanol)
b. CH3CH2OH (Ethanol)
where n is 1 and 2 respectively
The molecular formula for both of them are CH4O and C2H6O.
