What is the chemical formula for the alcohol that you drink?

The chemical formula for alcohol that you drink is C6O2Na4 OK, this answer is completely false. First and foremost, for any organic compound to be classified as an "alcohol" it has to have an "-OH" functional group. This C6O2Na4 answer has no Hydrogen at all!?? The alcohol you drink in alcoholic beverages is ETHYL ALCOHOL also known as ETHANOL. The chemical formula for ethanol is most commonly written as CH3CH2OH (or in the condensed empirical formula as C2H5OH or simply C2H6O). If you look up ethyl alcohol on wikipedia you can actually see figures of the actual molecule. The difference between ethyl alcohol and methyl alcohol (CH3OH) is the extra methylene group (CH2). Methyl Alcohol is highly poisonous and can be fatal. However, the immediate treatment for methanol poisoning is to consume mass quantities of ethanol very quickly since the body used the same metabolic pathways to break them both down. (Flood the pathway with ethanol which the body can break down). So every time you get wasted, just remember, you're protecting yourself from methanol poisoning!
