There are 3 atom carbon in a molecule of 2-propanol
Further explanation
Ball and stick model is a model of molecules or compounds in 3-dimensional form.
Atoms are described in the form of spheres and their bonds in the form of sticks.
For double or triple-double bonds described in two or three curved stick shapes
Atoms can be distinguished from the color of the spheres
Alcohol is an alkane derivative where one H atom is replaced by a -OH group
Alcohol is a carbon compound derived from alkanes with a general formula
CnH2n + 2O
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)
2 propanol included in the secondary alcohol
2 propanol is a compound that has a molecular formula equal to 1 propanol but different in its functional group
General alcohol molecular formula
For 2 propanol: (CH₃)₂CHOH or C₃H₈O
For 2 propanol, the -OH functional group is bound to atom C no 2, with 3 carbon atoms
