An ESTER and Water. e.g.
CH3CH2COOH + CH3CH2OH CH3CH2-O-(O=)C-CH2CH3 + H2O
Propanoic Acid + Ethanol = Ethyl propanoate + Water.

Is C3H7NH2 listed an achohol?
no because a alcohol is stated as a organic compound with an OH group and c3h7nh2 does not contain a OH group therefore not an alcohol (it is however a primary amine)
Is 1-proponal a primary alcohol?
1-proponol is a primary alcohol
When Pyridium chlorochromate is added to primary alcohol what does it give?
when u add PCC to a primary alcohol its gets oxidized to an aldehyde. example CH3CH2CH2OH +PCC --. CH3CH2COOH when u add PCC to a primary alcohol its gets oxidized to an aldehyde. example CH3CH2CH2OH +PCC --. CH3CH2COOH
Is ethanol primary or secondary alcohol?
In order to be a secondary alcohol, the carbon with the alcohol moiety must be bonded to two other carbons. There are only two carbons total in ethanol, so it cannot possibly be a secondary alcohol. The smallest/lowest molecular weight secondary alcohol is cyclopropanol, which has three carbons: one for the alcohol group, and two others for it to be bonded to.
Why does secondary alcohol react with potassium permanganate more quickly than primary alcohol?
Because a primary alcohol oxidation is a two step process. First going to an aldehyde then to a carboxylic acid. A secondary alcohol is a one step process that produces a ketone.
Reacting an organic acid with a primary alcohol yields what products An Aldehyde A Ketone An Alkyne An Ester?
an ester is formed
Is C3H7NH2 listed an achohol?

Is 1-proponal a primary alcohol?
1-proponol is a primary alcohol
What is the oxidation of alcohol?
Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone. Oxidation of a primary alcohol results in an Aldahyde, 2 molecules of primary alcohol oxidized results in an ether, oxidization of a secondary alcohol end product is a ketone.
When a primary alcohol is strongly oxidized the product?
The product of the oxidation of a primary alcohol is a carboxylic acid.
The chemical structure of alcohol is similar to which macronutrient?
The chemical structure of alcohol is similar to the macronutrient carbohydrate.The primary reason for this is that alcohol can be derived from the fermentation of sugars and it is an organic compound. However when looking at the basic structure of an alcohol, it more closely resembles the inorganic micronutrient water, as one of the hydrogen atoms of water is replaced by the alkyl group of alcohol.
Is pink a primary or secondary color?
Pink is a theoretical color and is nether a part of primary or secondary color. Pink is seen by our eyes fully reacting to red and partially reacting to green and blue. Then the brain translates it into our understanding of the color pink.
What are the products of oxidation of alcohols?
The products of oxidation of organic compounds vary widely. There are tens of millions of organic compounds. And are they going to be completely oxidized, or is partial oxidation a maybe? Waaaaaaay too many possibilities to even begin to explore them here.
What gas is produced from burning bamboo?
During the combustion of any organic material, there are two primary products. The first is water vapor and the second is carbon dioxide gas.
What is swern oxidation?
Swern oxidation is a type of chemical reaction that occurs in chemistry. It takes a primary alcohol and converts it to a ketone or aldehyde using DMSO or COCI2, along with an organic base.
WHAT IS THE CHEMICAL FORMULAS FOR ALCOHOL?
it depends of the kind of alcohol,there are primary alcohol(R-CH2OH), secondary alcohol, tertiary alcohol etc. but we can identify an alcohol by the chemical formula:R-OHEthanol (drinking alcohol )or Ethyl alcoholC2H5OHIsopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) CH3-CH(OH)-CH3Formula: R-OHWhere R is is an carbon containing organic groupyou get drunk
What type of alcohol is 2-methyl-1-propanol?
a primary alcohol
