As written it is meaningless. !!!!

However, , it should be written as CH3CH2OH . Note the use of capital letter for elemental symbols. This is the internationally recognised standard.

CH3CH2OH is Ethanol , archaically 'ethyl alchol'. It is the alcohol that is foun in beers wines and spirits.

As written CH3CH2OH it can redrawn as

H3C-CH2-O-H .

The lines/hashes indicating where the principal single covalent bonds lie. The hydrogens (H3 & H2) are directly combined to their adjacent carbons per a single covaalent bond. The 'O' of the '-O-H' moiety is directly combined to the carbon , NOT the adjacent hydrogen.

CHEERS!!!!!
