Lesson objectives

At the end of the lesson, the students should be

able to:

1. recognize the common uses of alcohols,

2. identify simiarities in the structure of different

kinds of alcohols, and

3. construct the structure of different kinds of

alcohols
TERMINOLOGIES

1. HOMOLOGOUS- having the same structure, relative

position, or structure in particular.

2. HYDROCARBONS- a compound of Hydrogen and

Carbons.

3. ANTISEPTIC- are antimicrobial substances that are

applied to living tissue/skin to reduce the possibility of
infection, sepsis of putrefaction.

4. BEVERAGE- a drink, especially one other than water.

Functional
Homologous Series Suffix Example
Group

Alkane Alkyl -ane Ethane

Alkene Alkenyl -ene Ethene

 Belong
to a homologous series of organic
compounds similar to alkanes and alkenes.

Thehydrocarbon chains contain the

functional group -OH (hydroxyl group)

 Naming the Alcohol

The names of alcohol end

with anol.

The simplest alcohol is

methanol, with one carbon
atom.
Physical Properties of ALcohols

Name Molecular formula Solubility In Water

Methanol CH3OH Very Soluble

Ethananol C2H5OH Soluble

Propananol C3H7OH Soluble

Butananol C4H9OH Slightly soluble

 Alcohols are soluble in water

but
their solubility decreases as their
molecular size increases.

Unlikethe alkanes and alkenes, the first

four alcohols are liquid at room
temperature and pressure.
 What do you think is the
importance of these
alcohols in our daily
lives?
