1. Group 1
Alcohols

2. Alcohols are compounds containing the hydroxyl group (-OH)
Presented in general formula ROH
Reactivity is mainly attributed to the -OH group
Is a weak acid due to the hydrogen ion released from the -OH bond
Is water soluble due to H-bonding

3. Based on alkyl group, alcohol may be classified into
-Primary n-propyl alcohol
-Secondary sec-butyl alcohol
-Tertiary tert-butyl alcohol

4. Alcohols may be classified based on the number of OH groups as
-Monohydroxy
-Polyhydroxy

5. Chromic acid test

6. Can detect the presence of/or can differentiate:
Alcohols, primary and secondary (1o ,2o) Phenols

7. K2Cr2O7 in H2SO4 Potassium Dichromate
Test Reagent
K2Cr2O7 in H2SO4 Potassium Dichromate

8. Blue green precipitate for positive results
Visible Results
Blue green precipitate for positive results

9. Lucas Test

10. Can detect the presence of/or can differentiate:
Alcohols, primary secondary and tertiary (1o,2o,3o) phenols

11. ZnCl2 in HCl Alkyl halide OH becomes Cl
Test Reagent
ZnCl2 in HCl Alkyl halide OH becomes Cl

12. Visible Result
Rate: Benzylic (false positive > tertiary > secondary > primary) Formation of emulsion 1o,2o soluble no reaction Aromatic cpds. and 3o

13. Esterification
It happens between the reaction of an alcohol and a carboxylic acid
Releases fruity odor
For example
When Salicylic acid reacts with Methanol , Methyl Salicylate is formed. C6H4(OH)COOCH3 or C8H8O3

14. Test for Methyl Alcohol
H – C – H H2
Hot Cu
CH3 - OH
H2SO4

15. Methyl alcohol:
- A colorless, volatile,water-soluble,poisonous liquid. Obtained by the destructive distillation of wood or the incomplete oxidation of natural gas, or produce synthetically from carbon monoxide and hydrogen, used chiefly as a solvent, a fuel, and an automobile antifreeze and in the synthesis of formaldehyde.

16. POSITIVE RESULT: Hemiacetal:
Pink-red ring at the junction due to the formation of hemiacetal.
Hemiacetal:
Class of organic chemical compounds having the general formula RCH(OH)OR,
Where R is an organic group.

18. Test for Iodoform

19. Iodoform Test
Iodoform is the organ iodine compound with the formula CHI3. A pale yellow, crystalline, volatile substance, it has a penetrating odor (in older chemistry texts, the smell is sometimes referred to as the smell of hospitals) and, analogous to chloroform, sweetish taste. It is occasionally used as a disinfectant. 

20. Can detect presence of/ Differentiate between:
2o alcohol (methyl alcohol)

21. Test Reagent:
Iodine bleach (I₂ –NAOH)

22. Visible Result:
Light yellow precipitate in solution (can also detect methyl ketones)

23. Test for Glycerol
Acrolein Test

24. Acrolein Test
One of the test for glycerol is the Acrolein Test. Acrolein test is a test for the presence of glycerin or fats. A sample with KHSO₄, and acrolein is released. When a fat is heated strongly in the presence of a dehydrating agent such as KHSO₄, the glycerol portion of the molecule is dehydrated to form the unsaturated aldehyde, acrolein(CH₂=CH-CHO), which has the peculiar odor of burnt grease.

25. Can detect the presence of:
Glycerol

26. Test Reagent:
Potassium bisulfate

27. Visible result:
Pungent odor

28. Fermentation
The overall process of fermentation is to convert glucose sugar (C6H12O6) to alcohol (CH3CH2OH) and carbon dioxide gas (CO2). The reactions within the yeast cell which make this happen are very complex but the overall process is as follows:
C6H12O6 ====> 2(CH3CH2OH) (CO2) Energy (which is stored in ATP)
Sugar ====> Alcohol Carbon dioxide gas + Energy
(Glucose) (Ethyl alcohol)

29. Since we didn't perform the experiment I will explain the procedures.
The pineapple- To obtain Glucose
Yeast- important in fermentation, which serves as an enzyme
Lime water – to test the presence of Carbon Dioxide
The flammability test and Chromic acid test.
