formula of ether and alchahol and please explain it too in your own way thanks
Answers
Because there are no hydrogen bonds to organize the structure of the liquid, the ether is significantly less dense than the corresponding alcohol. ... But, they can't act as hydrogen-bond donors. As a result, ethers are less likely to be soluble in water than the alcohol with the same molecular weight.
C2H5OH
Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol and abbreviated as EtOH, is a colorless, volatile, and flammable liquid that is soluble in water. Its chemical formula is C2H6O, or can be written as C2H5OH or CH3CH2OH. It has one methyl (-CH3) group, one methylene (-CH2-) group, and one hydroxyl (-OH) group.
Structure of Ethers. Ethers are a class of organic compounds that contain an ether group. An ether group is an oxygen atom connected to two alkyl or aryl groups. They follow the general formula R-O-R'.
Hello mate
Ether formula : R-O-R'
As you can see there are two alky group( i.e hydrocarbons constist of only C and H Like CH₃- ) attached to a single oxygen with single bond.
Alcohol Formula : R-OH
Here you can see a single alky group is attached to -OH group( also known a phenolic OH ) with a single bond.
