Hydroxyl group (―OH), in chemistry, a functional group with one hydrogen and one oxygen atom. An oxygen atom normally forms two σ bonds with other atoms; the water molecule, H2O, is the simplest and most common example.

In chemistry, a hydroxy or hydroxyl group is a functional group with the chemical formula −OH and composed of one oxygen atom covalently bonded to one hydrogen atom. In organic chemistry, alcohols and carboxylic acids contain one or more hydroxy groups.

2024年4月25日 · Hydroxyl group is the name of the chemical group, which is simply a single oxygen atom combined with a hydrogen atom. It is essential in organic molecules and lends them some of the properties they possess.

2017年4月28日 · A hydroxyl group is a functional group that attaches to some molecules containing an oxygen and hydrogen atom, bonded together. Also spelled hydroxy, this functional group provides important functions to both alcohols and carboxylic acids.

2018年11月5日 · The hydroxyl group is a functional group consisting of a hydrogen atom covalently bonded to an oxygen atom. The hydroxyl group is denoted by -OH in chemical structures and has a valence charge of -1.

A hydroxyl group (-OH) is a functional group consisting of an oxygen atom and a hydrogen atom that are covalently bonded to a carbon atom in a molecule. Hydroxyl groups are highly polar and can participate in hydrogen bonding, making them important in various chemical reactions and biological processes.

2021年2月15日 · In chemistry, a hydroxyl group is a group of atoms formed by an oxygen atom with two unshared pairs of electrons; on the one hand it is linked to a hydrogen atom by means of a single covalent bond, and on the other it can be linked to a carbon chain in an organic compound, to some other non-metal (for example, sulfur, nitrogen, etc.) , or it ...

A hydroxyl group is a functional group consisting of an oxygen atom bonded to a hydrogen atom, represented as -OH. This group is commonly found in alcohols and phenols and plays a crucial role in the properties and reactivity of organic compounds, …

A hydroxyl group is a functional group characterized by the presence of an oxygen atom bonded to a hydrogen atom, represented as -OH. This polar group plays a crucial role in various organic compounds, affecting their physical and chemical properties, and is significant in a wide array of biochemical processes.

2023年10月14日 · Hydroxyl group meaning: A hydroxyl group is composed of an oxygen atom and a hydrogen atom, attached by a polar covalent bond due to the difference in electronegativity of the two atoms.
