Depends on the alcohol:

  1. Methyl alcohol, the simplest alcohol is methane with a hydroxyl group replacing one of the 4 hydrogens - CH3OH
  2. Ethyl alcohol, the drinkable alcohol is ethane with a hydroxyl group replacing one of the 6 hydrogens - C2H5OH
  3. And so it continues, take a hydrocarbon and replace one hydrogen with a hydroxyl group
