Question

Write the succeeding homologue of CH3CH2CH2OH

Answer 1

C4H9OH
is a succeding homologous after this

Answer 2

Answer : The succeeding homologue of propanal $CH_3CH_2CH_2OH$ is, butanal $CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH$

Explanation :

Homologous series : It is defined as a series of compounds with the same functional group and have the similar chemical properties but the only difference is that the members of the series differ by the number of repeating units. The repeating unit can be the length of the carbon chain.

That means in the given compound, the repeating unit is $CH_2$. So, the homologue of propanal is butanal.

Hence, the succeeding homologue of propanal $CH_3CH_2CH_2OH$ is, butanal $CH_3CH_2CH_2CH_2OH$
