Naming Alcohols #chemistry #science #namingalcohols #alcohols

In this educational video on naming alcohols, we break down the step-by-step process of how to properly name alcohols according to IUPAC nomenclature. Alcohols, containing a hydroxyl group (-OH), are a key class of organic compounds studied in chemistry and are essential in both organic chemistry and everyday applications. Whether you're a chemistry student preparing for exams or a parent helping with home schooling, this tutorial will give you a solid understanding of how to name alcohols based on their structure, parent chain, and functional group.

We cover important topics such as identifying the longest carbon chain, determining the position of the hydroxyl group, and naming alcohols based on their alkyl groups and prefixes. You’ll also learn the difference between primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols and how to handle cyclic alcohols.

This video will provide all the foundational knowledge you need to confidently tackle alcohol naming problems, helping students excel in their studies. Don’t forget to subscribe for more chemistry tutorials, like the video if it was helpful, and leave a comment with any questions or suggestions.

Watched it, too. It's nice to have some lectures to accompany an online course! This really reinforces the book learning in a simple, uncluttered way. Thank you.

Thank you that was so helpful to practice naming alcohols.

You teach so well; I hope if they teach like this in college.
Thank you, sir! And keep making these great videos

For example 1 you didnt choose the long chain with 6 carbons, why?

[faizaalam]

sir in every functional gp..longest chain contaning that functional gp is taken for naming???

can i get extra credit for being one of the few that watched these videos? im trying here!

nice comment mah dude. love you and your white board with scientific shit on it. I will name my pet hedgehog after you mah dude.
