The IUPAC name and the formula of next homologue of propanol is butanol C_4H_9OH.

The IUPAC name and the formula of next homologue of butanol is pentanol C_5H_11OH.

Explanation:

Homologous series are the group of compounds with same basic chemical formula but differ in the length of their carbon chain. They differ by a  group.

The IUPAC nomenclature of organic compounds are given as follows:

1. Select the longest possible carbon chain.

2. For the number of carbon atom, we add prefix as 'meth' for 1, 'eth' for 2, 'prop' for 3, 'but' for 4, 'pent' for 5, 'hex' for 6, 'sept' for 7, 'oct' for 8, 'nona' for 9 and 'deca' for 10.

3. A suffix 'ol' is added at the end of the name if functional group is -OH.

The next homologue of propanol C_3H_7OH is butanol with formula C_4H_9OH. The next homologue of butanol C_4H_9OH is pentanol with formula of C_5H_11OH.
