The name of the alcohol of the molecular formula C₆H₁₄O is

2,3 dimethyl 2 butanol

Further explanation

Alcohol is a carbon compound derived from alkanes with a general formula

$\large{\boxed{\boxed{\bold{C_nH_{2n+2}O}}}$

Alcohol has a -OH functional group

Based on the location of the bound -OH functional group, alcohol can be divided into three types namely:

1. primary alcohol, the -OH group is attached to a primary C atom (carbon atom which is bound directly to one C atom at another) 2. secondary alcohol, the -OH group is bound to the secondary C atom (carbon atom which is bound directly to the other two C atoms) 3. tertiary alcohol, the -OH group is bound to a tertiary C atom (a carbon atom that is bound directly to three other C atoms)

For tertiary alcohol is denoted by notation 3°

In the statement about the problem there is alcohol with a molecular formula:

$\large{\boxed{\bold{C_6H_{14}O}}}$

Because there are 2 methyl (CH₃) branches attached to the main chain, the main chain only has 4 C atoms, so the main chain in alcohol is called butanol

C-C-C-C

The methyl branch will be located on C atoms No. 2 and 3 of the main chain because when placed at the end it will form a new main chain that has more than 4 C atoms.

C-C-C-C

CH₃ C H₃

The -OH function group we put on a tertiary C atom that is C atom no 2 or 3 (from the same left or right because both C atoms are tertiary)

C-C-C-C

CH₃ C H₃

So the name of the alcohol is (the -OH functional group gets a smaller number)

2,3 dimethyl 2 butanol

Spontaneity tell us the direction of the reaction, but not how fast it goes. gibbs free energy brings together enthalpy, entropy and temperature in one easy formula. g = h - ts. and, finally the sign of delta g is always negative for a spontaneous reaction.
