Why is CH3OH methyl alcohol?
In chemistry CH3 is the methyl group and OH is the alcohol group so CH3OH is methyl alcohol etc.
Is Methyl the functional group that is commonly found in alcohols?
No, methyl is not a functional group commonly found in alcohols. The functional group that is commonly found in alcohols is the hydroxyl group (-OH). Methyl, on the other hand, is a functional group commonly found in compounds called methyl groups (-CH3).
-ch3 group is what kind of group?
Methyl
How did methyl violet methyl blue and methylene blue come to be called this name?
The "methyl" and "methylene" come from their chemical structures. Something that has "methyl" in its name contains a methyl group - CH3. A common chemical like this is methyl alcohol - CH3OH. The methylene group is CH2. The blue and violet? That's what color they are.
Is methyl octane alcohol alkane or alkenes?
Alcohol is an Oxygen atom double-bonded to a carbonyl group. As such, there is no such thing as 'Methyl Octane Alcohol'. However, there is Methyl Alcohol and Octyl Alcohol. Please edit your question. Also: If you are asking if Methyl Alcohol is miscible (dissoluble) in octane, it is. Alkanes are hydrocarbons only, so both octane and the methyl group in methanol (methyl alcohol) are alkanes.
What is the volume of a methyl group?
The volume of a methyl group would be 100. The issue of a methyl group would be known as 18.
Why is methyl acidic?
No, the methyl group is neutral
Why is CH3OH methyl alcohol?
In chemistry CH3 is the methyl group and OH is the alcohol group so CH3OH is methyl alcohol etc.
How do you distinguish 2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid from3-methyl-2-nitrobenzoic acid?
Looking at the structure, the methyl group is closer to the carboxylic acid group on2-methyl-3-nitrobenzoic acid, while the nitro group is closer to the carboxylic acid group on 3-methyl-2-nitrobenzoic acid.
Is Methyl the functional group that is commonly found in alcohols?
No, methyl is not a functional group commonly found in alcohols. The functional group that is commonly found in alcohols is the hydroxyl group (-OH). Methyl, on the other hand, is a functional group commonly found in compounds called methyl groups (-CH3).
-ch3 group is what kind of group?
Methyl
A -CH3 group is a group?
A -CH3 group is called a methyl group.
Is Methyl a metal?
No it is not. Methyl is the CH3 group which is part of some covalent compounds.
How did methyl violet methyl blue and methylene blue come to be called this name?
The "methyl" and "methylene" come from their chemical structures. Something that has "methyl" in its name contains a methyl group - CH3. A common chemical like this is methyl alcohol - CH3OH. The methylene group is CH2. The blue and violet? That's what color they are.
What is the charge of methyl?
I don't understand "the charge of methyl". A methyl group isn't formally charged. It's normally a slight electron donor (a weakly activating group, if you prefer that terminology), if that helps.
How is methyl made?
There is no such thing as a lone 'methyl'. A methyl group is a CH3 extending off an organic compounds main carbon chain. They can be created by the Sn2 reaction on iodomethane, or by the reaction of methyl lithium or MeMgCl with a carbon atom that is substituted with a leaving group
Functional group in methyl orange?
Methyl orange is red under a pH=3,1 and yellow over a pH=4,4; methyl orange is useful for the titrimetric determination of acids concentration.
