any organic compound ending with just an OH is an alcohol. this is propylalcohol or propaneol.
note: if it ends with -COOH (where the carbon is double bonded to the first O and single bonded to the second) it is carboxylic acid

What is the reaction between propanol and concentrated HBr?
you have CH3CH2CH2OH (propanol) + HBR = first you alcohol get protnated to good leaving group and to lower base which water . so you have CH3CH2CH2HO+ Br-. Then when water leaves you have final product of CH3CH2CH2Br + HOH. 1. CH3CH2CH3OH +HBR ( What you started with) 2. CH3CH2CH2HOH +Br- ( reaction after protnation of alcohol to good leaving group). 3. CH3CH2CH2BR + HOH ( final product primary haloalkane and water).
What is the iupac name of ch3ch2ch3oh?
2-propanol. Or, just Propanol if you've stuck the OH group on the end. The hydrocarbon chain is 3 carbons, so the prefix is prop. There are only single bonds, so it's an alkane, and the -ol suffix is because of the OH functional group. If the OH group is in the middle, it's at position 2, so 2-propanol. Otherwise, you don't need a locant. It would also possibly be called N-Propanol.
