Tertiary
An example of a hydrocarbon with a hydroxyl group attached to a saturated carbon atom is an alcohol. Methanol, ethanol, and butanol are examples of alcohols where the hydroxyl group (-OH) is attached to a saturated carbon atom.
An alcohol with only one hydroxyl group in its structure is known as a primary alcohol. It has the hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a carbon atom, which is directly connected to only one other carbon atom. Ethanol (CH3CH2OH) is an example of a primary alcohol.
The IUPAC name for the compound with the formula CH3CHCH2OH is 2-propanol. This compound is an alcohol, where the hydroxyl (–OH) group is attached to the second carbon of a three-carbon chain. The "propanol" indicates that it is a three-carbon alcohol, and the "2-" specifies the position of the hydroxyl group.
No, monomers and polymers of aldehydes and ketones do not have hydroxyl groups attached. Aldehydes and ketones have a carbonyl group (C=O) attached to at least one carbon atom and do not have any hydroxyl groups (-OH) attached to the carbon chain.
Just check for how many carbon groups are attached to the carbon group that OH is on. Since OH can only bond to one carbon, you see how many other carbons are attached to that one. The maximum is 3, since carbon usually only has 4 bonds total, making it tertiary structure. Likewise, 2 carbon groups attached to that carbon makes it secondary, and one C group is primary. Just write out a diagram and it should be easy!

Yes but you have to draw it as a 3 carbon ring structure (like a triangle) and the 1st carbon would have a CH3 and an OH.

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.
Alcohol falls under the chemical group of organic compounds known as alcohols, characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a carbon atom.
1-propanol is a primary alcohol. It has the hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a primary carbon, which is bonded to one other carbon atom in the molecule.
They form alchohols. They have the molecular formula of C(n)H(2n+1)OH.
Alcohols can be shortened to ROH but more often CnH2n+1OH.

if all 3 carbons are attached with carbonyl carbon it will be "propanamide". If one carbon is attached to the nitrogen and one with carbonyl carbon it will be "N-methyl acetamide"
Linalool is not a tertiary alcohol; it is a secondary alcohol. Tertiary alcohols have three alkyl groups attached to the carbon bearing the hydroxyl group, whereas linalool has two alkyl groups attached to this position.
