Methanol is an alcohol (H3C-O-H)
Methanal is an aldehyde. (HC-H(=O).
They cannot be isomers because they have a different number of 'hydrogens' for the given numbers of 'carbons'.

What will you get by the controlled oxidation of methanol?
A methanal.
What is the IUPAC name of the simplest alcohol?
Formaldehyde (HCHO) is the simplest aldehyde. It is also known as methanal (NOT methanol) or paraform.
Why intake of methanol in very small quantities can cause death?
intake of methanol in a small amount can cause death. methanol gets oxidised into methanal reacts with cell component which results in coalugation of cell content
How is methanol different from methanal?
Methanol is an alcohol with the formula CH3OH often simplified to COH4. Its structure consists of a carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms and a hydroxy (OH) group. Methanal, more commonly called formaldehyde, is an aldehyde with the formula CH2O. It consists of a carbon atom bonded to two hydrogen atoms and double-bonded to an oxygen atom.
What is the chemical reaction for the oxidation of methanol to methanal?
The chemical reaction between methanol (Alcohol) and Ketone is oxidation reaction. You oxidize the alcohol using acidified potassium dichromate (VI) to turn to ketone. For example CH3CH2OH oxidizes to CH3CHO Hope it helps

Incomplete combustion of methane?
... will also result in formation of carbon monoxide, formaldehyde (methanal), methanol, carbon black.
What are examples of four organic compounds and their structure?
Methane, CH4 Methanol, CH3OH Methanal, CH2O Methyl chloride, CH3Cl

How much methonal is needed to lower freezing point of fresh water?
Methonal does not exist. Methanol (CH3OH) or methanal (CH2O) do exist, which one do you mean.

==Weight of Methanol== One US gallon of methanol weighs about 6.6 pounds.
Which isomer packs more efficiently in the solid phase Cis isomer or Trans Isomer?
trans isomers
What is the IUPAC name for formadehyde?
