[Chemistry Class Notes] on Propan 2 ol Formula Pdf for Exam

The chemical formula for propan 2 ol is the C[_{3}]H[_{8}]O. Propan 2 ol is a colourless flammable liquid, They have a disinfectant property so they are widely used as antiseptic. Propan 2 ol has an isomer property of 1-propanal. The Propan 2 ol are widely used in manufacturing medicines, dye solutions, window cleaners, cosmetics, lacquer formulations, anti-freezes, and soaps. Further, about 70% of the propan 2 ol are sold in an aqueous state as rubbing alcohol. Propan 2 Ol (C[_{3}]H[_{8}]O) can convert into viscous solution when decreasing the temperature of propan 2 ol and freezes at  −89 °C.

Structure of Propan 2 ol

The structure of propan 2 ol is formed by combining an isopropyl group with a hydroxyl group. Isopropyl alcohol is the best example of secondary alcohol. As the carbon atom with alcohol is attached to two other carbon atoms. The structure of propan 2 ol is an isomer of 1 propanol and ethyl methyl ether.

The molecular weight of isopropyl alcohol is about 60.096 g mol[^{-1}]. The density of this aqueous solution is about 0.786 g/cm[^{3}] (20 [^{0}]C). Further, the boiling point of isopropyl alcohol is 82.6 [^{0}]C and the melting point is about −89 [^{0}]C

The above image shows the alcohol group OH combined with the carbon atom, which is connected with the other two carbon atoms. 

2 Methyl Propan 2 ol Structure
