The IUPAC system of nomenclature assigns a characteristic suffix -al to aldehydes. The IUPAC system of nomenclature assigns a characteristic suffix of -one to ketones. A ketone carbonyl function may be located anywhere within a chain or ring, and its position is usually given by a location number.

It explains that an alcohol is characterized by a hydroxy (-OH) group attached to an alkyl group, abbreviated as R-OH. Practice questions guide students through naming various alcohols and phenols, often requiring them to number the carbon atoms in the chains. The text also differentiates phenols, which have the -OH group attached to an aromatic ring.
