Alcohols are organic compounds in which a hydrogen atom of an aliphatic carbon is replaced with a
Hydroxyl group
Alcohols contain an -OH group connected to a saturated,
sp3-hybridized C atom.
Consists of two parts;
one containing the alkyl group and the other containing functional group hydroxyl group.

alcohols boiling points in comparison to other hydrocarbons having equal molecular masses.

hydrogen bonds are formed between water and alcohol molecules which make alcohol
soluble in water
However, the alkyl group attached to the hydroxyl group is
hydrophobic in nature
Alcohols react with active metals to form the corresponding
alkoxide
are bases used as reagents in organic chemistry
