Alcohols fall under unit 10 of class 12 chemistry book according to the updated syllabus of 2080. Now let's have a introduction with alcohols. Aliphatic alcohol has general formula, ROH, where R = alkyl group. The number of -OH group attached to the hydrocarbon may be one, two, three or more and they are called monhydric, dihydric, trihydric or polyhydric alcohols respectively.
Alcohols may be of 1º, 2º and 3° depending upon the attachement of - OH group in 1º, 2º and 3º carbon atom of hydrocarbon.
CH₃OH Methanol (Methyl alcohol)
CH₃CH₂OH Ethanol (Ethyl alcohol)
CH₃CH₂CH₂OH Propanol (Propyl alcohol)
