Answer:
A homologous series is a series of organic compounds which belong to the same family (i.e. possess same functional group) and show similar chemical properties. The members of this series are called homologue and differ from each other by the number of CH2 units in the main carbon chain. All homologues of a series have the same general formula.
The higher homologue of CH3OH (methanol) is CH3CH2OH (ethanol).
