What is the technical name for ethanol?

The chemical name for ethanol is Ethyl Alcohol or Ethan-1-ol and it is member of the alcohol family. The chemical formula for ethanol can be written as C2H5OH, or as the alternative notation, CH3-CH2-OH. The latter expression tells you it's a straight-chain molecule, and it is also an expression of its structural formula.It's possible to write C2H6O, but that's an empirical formula. With only that, you'd be unable to tell ethanol from dimethyl ether, its isomer, as they are both written that way.Now you know what's in this compound and how the molecule is shaped.

What is iupac name of next homolog of methanol?

Methanol ; CH3OH Ethanol ; CH3CH2OH Propanol ; CH3CH2CH2OH Butanol ; CH3CH2CH2CH2OH By IUPAC nomenclature ;- The first part of the name , )Meth - 1 carbon) indicates the number of carbons in the chain . The middle part of the name ('-an-)indicates it is a singly bonded alkane chain . The suffix part of the name ( --OH) indicates that it has an alcohol functional group at the end of the chain. Hence Hexanol; 'hex' 6 carbons' in the chain . '-an-' all the carbons are singly bonded . '=-OH'. there is an alcohol functional group at the end of the chain. Hence Hexanol ; CH3 - CH2- CH2 - CH2 - CH2 -CH2 - OH. The longer the chain, there is more branching on the chain, and the alcohol functional group can be displaced on to another carbon in the chain and is indicated by a number. e.g. Propan-2-ol' CH3CH(OH)CH3 The alcohol functional group is now on the second (2) carbon in the chain.
