A functional group is best described as a recurring cluster of atoms within a molecule that imparts specific chemical properties and reactivity. These groups determine how a compound behaves in chemical reactions and often influence the physical properties of the substance, such as solubility and boiling point. Common examples include hydroxyl (-OH), carboxyl (-COOH), and amino (-NH2) groups.

What is in a molecule influences the way that molecule reacts?
Functional groups are responsible for chemical reactions of molecules.
Is -CH3 in a functional group?
No, -CH3 is not a functional group. It is a methyl group, which is a common substituent in organic chemistry but not a functional group by itself.
Why functional group is a group but not a molecule?
Functional group is a part of an organic molecule which takes a part in chemical reaction for example in alcohols functional group is -OH , in carboxylic acids is -COOH and so on, but formaldehyde CH2O is a molecule and it is completely a functional group.
What is the functional group of ethonol?

What is a group that is closer together than the surrounding stars is called an?
A group of stars that are closer together than the surrounding stars is called a star cluster. Star clusters can be divided into two main types: open clusters and globular clusters, with open clusters being more loosely bound than globular clusters.
