Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Functional Groups - Alcohols - structure and reactions - Alcohol Classification

Sort 9 alcohols into PRIMARY (1°), SECONDARY (2°), or TERTIARY (3°) based on how many carbons are attached to the C bearing the OH group. Primary (1 carbon attached to C-OH): methanol (CH₃OH), ethanol (CH₃CH₂OH), butan-1-ol (CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₂OH). Secondary (2 carbons on C-OH): propan-2-ol (CH₃CHOHCH₃), b
