Answer:
Alkanes and alcohols are similar in that they can contain long or short chains of carbon atoms that are surrounded by hydrogen atoms. The special difference between an alkane chain and an alcohol chain is that an alcohol has what is called a hydroxyl group bonded to one of the carbons, replacing a simple hydrogen.
