Assembling Ethanol Cont.

Insert the post (now attached to the hydrogen 

piece) into the hole of the second carbon. 

You now have an ethane model.

Now you have an ethanol model.

To change ethane into ethanol, first locate the hydrogen with the 

attached post. Look for the hydrogen that is surrounded by three 

tiny 

triangular bumps (

see black circles on photo

).

Remove the hydrogen with the post and insert the exposed knob 

on the hydroxyl group into the exposed hole on ethane model.
