Some examples of alkanes include methane, CH4, is the natural gas you may burn in your furnace or on a stove
Paracetamol (acetaminophen) is a weak acid
Paracetamol is a member of the class of phenols that is 4-aminophenol in which one of the hydrogens attached to the amino group has been replaced by an acetyl group
It is a widely used over the counter medication
Paracetamol (acetaminophen, N-acetyl- p -aminophenol) is one of the most widely used over-the-counter analgesic antipyretic drugs
Acetaminophen Formula: C 8 H 9 NO 2 Molecular weight: 151
Functional groups are small groups of atoms that exhibit a characteristic reactivity
Definition
paracetamol is well-tolerated; however, overdoses can deplete hepatic glutathione stores, leading to accumulation of the hepatotoxic metabolite N-acetyl-p-benzoquinone-imine

What functional groups are in paracetamol? Acetazolamide contains a weakly acidic sulphonamide group, SO2NH2 as well as what is considered a peptide link, CONH but is named as an amide functional Q
Which of the listed functional groups do the two molecules put together NOT contain? Q
Paracetamol adsorption in acidic, neutral and basic media on three activated carbons with different chemistry surfaces was studied
Acetaminophen (Tylenol®, Paracetamol®) American formulations of this OTC pain killer are available in regular strength (325 mg of acetaminophen per tablet) or extra strength (500 mg of acetaminophen per tablet)
A functional group is a specific group of atoms within a molecule that gives rise to the characteristic chemical reactions of the molecule
The structure of capsaicin, the compound which is the source of the heat in hot chili peppers, incorporates several functional groups, labeled in the figure below and explained throughout this section
These moieties (the part of the molecule which can be found in many other molecules as well) are responsible for the chemical reactions that the molecule they are attached to participate in
Which functional group is present in paracetamol? Paracetamol contains three functional groups: the hydroxyl group (OH), the amide group (HN-CO-R), and the aromatic group (benzene ring), as shown in Fig
Acetaminophen (paracetamol), also commonly known as Tylenol, is the most commonly taken analgesic worldwide and is recommended as first-line therapy in pain conditions by the World Health Organization (WHO)

What functional groups are present in aspirin? The common name of aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid and its IUPAC name is 2-Acetoxybenzoic acid
Note that aromatic systems (arenes) should also be thought of as a functional group, but they don't fit into the priority order list shown below
Ketones and aldehydes are two closely related carbonyl-based functional groups that react in very similar ways
