Nomenclature & Structure of Functional Group


Description: Functional groups are named based on priority, and their structure defines chemical properties and reactivity.


Alcohol & Its Preparation


Description: Alcohols are organic compounds with -OH group, prepared via hydration, reduction, and fermentation methods.


Classification of Alcohol


Description: Alcohol is classified into primary, secondary, and tertiary based on the carbon atom bonded to hydroxyl.


Physical Properties of Alcohol


Description: Alcohols have high boiling points, hydrogen bonding, are polar, soluble in water, and can evaporate easily.


Chemical Properties of Alcohol


Description: Alcohols undergo oxidation, esterification, dehydration, nucleophilic substitution, combustion, and react with metals to form alkoxides.


Phenol & Its Classification & Ethers


Description: Phenol is an aromatic alcohol, acidic, antiseptic, classified by substituents; ethers are organic compounds with -O- linkage.


Acidic Nature


Description: Acidic nature refers to a substance's ability to donate protons (H⁺) and lower pH levels.


Physical & Chemical Properties of Ethers


Description: Ethers are volatile, low polarity, insoluble in water, flammable, unreactive to acids, form peroxides easily.
