Definition =
A functional group may be defined as an atom or a group of atoms present In a molecule which largely determines it's chemical properties.
EXPLAINation =
To explain the meaning of functional group let us consider ethane and ethanol or ethyl alcohol as examples.
Here ethanol is obtained by replacing one hydrogen atom of ethane by hydroxyl group as below
-H
ethane -------> Ethanol
(C2H6) +OH (C2H5OH)
both ethanol and ethane have different physical and chemical properties ..
if it is beneficial then mark as brilliancy..please
