∙ 11y agoEthanol is the alcohol based on ethane.
Ethane; CH3-CH3
Ethanol; CH3-CH2OH.
One of the hydrogen atoms has been replaced with an -OH group.

H-C-C-O-H. You then fill out the 4 missing hydrogens (both above and below each of the 2 carbons)Wiki User

The chemical structure of ethanol consists of?
2 carbons and 1 hydroxyl group
What is the isomer of ethanol?
Yes, ethoxyethane and methoxypropane are isomers. The structure for ethoxyethane is : CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3 The structure for methoxypropane is : CH3-O-CH2-CH2-CH3 The formula is the same, they both have 4 carbons, 10 hydrogens, and 1 oxygen. The only difference is their structure. Therefore, they are indeed isomers.
Why does ethanol burn differently than ethanol and water mixed?
the main reason why ethanol burns differently then ethanol and water mix is mainly because when you add the water to the ethanol you are making the ethanol less potent so it will burn weaker.
Is ethanol reducing agent?
ethanol is a solvent
Is ethanol a metal?
No, ethanol is an organic basic liquid, wine and beer contain ethanol, and it is flammable
Why do high temperatures have a higher absorbance than ethanol?
Ethanol is known to have a lower absorbance, in comparison to high temperatures, and this is base on ethanol chemical structure.
What makes ethanol a saturated hydrocarbon?
It is a saturated hydrocarbon because it contains no double bonds in its structure. The general formula for alcohol series is CnH2n+1OH. For example, structure of ethanol is as follows:- H3C-CH2-OH
The chemical structure of ethanol consists of?
2 carbons and 1 hydroxyl group
What elements compose ethanol?
C, H and O: the chemical structure is CH3-CH2-OH grtz, KTTK
What is the Lewis dot structure of ethanol?
H H H-C-C-O-H H H
How many single bonds are shared between hydrogen and oxygen in the Lewis structure of ethanol?
One. C2H5O-H
Differentiation polarity of acetone and ethanol?
as ethanol is an alcohol containing polar group in its structure that is OH it is a polar group.As acetone is a carbonyl compound containig two CH3 groups which are non polar and Carbonyl group is slightly polar compared to alcoholic group so ethanol is highly polar than acetone
What is the structure of ethyl alcohol?
Ethyl alcohol, which is the old name for ethanol, is H3C-CH2OH
Is ethanol a element?
no ethanol is not an element. Ethanol is an Organic compound.
What is the isomer of ethanol?
Yes, ethoxyethane and methoxypropane are isomers. The structure for ethoxyethane is : CH3-CH2-O-CH2-CH3 The structure for methoxypropane is : CH3-O-CH2-CH2-CH3 The formula is the same, they both have 4 carbons, 10 hydrogens, and 1 oxygen. The only difference is their structure. Therefore, they are indeed isomers.
How is ethanol harnessed?
how is ethanol controlled
Is ethanol a sugar?
No, ethanol is an alcohol.
