What is the chemical formula for ethyl alcohol?

Ethyl Alcohol is the archaic/everyday name for 'alcohol;, asfound in beers, wines and spirits. Its modern IUPAC name is 'Ethanol'. Its formula is usually shown in 'structural form' as ; CH3-CH2-O-H' However, this can be reduced to ' C2H6O '. Since there are other organic substances with the formula ' C2H6O' it is better to show it in the structural form. e.g. CH3-O-CH3 ( diethyl ether). Be it called ' alcohol/ethyl alcohol/ethanol it is still the same substance with the same structure. The general alcohol functional group formula is shown as ' R-CH2OH'. 'R' being the rest of the molecule. , and the alcohol is ALWAYS shown as ' = CH2OH'. as standard IUPAC practice.


Chemical formula for ethyl acetate?

Ethyl Acetate, in the modern IUPAC nomenclature is ' Ethyl Ethanoate'. The structural formula is CH3-C(=O)-O-CH2-CH3 It is better to show the structural formula , because if reduced to 'C4H8O2' it could be an entirely different organic structure. e.g butanoic acid (CH3CH2CH2COOH) . NB The 2nd carbon in the chain is singly bonded to the first carbon, doubly bonded to an oxygen and singly bonded to the second oxygen. hence the brackets. The singly bonded oxygen is then singly bonded to the third carbon.
