CH₃(CH₂)₇OH
Here's a breakdown:
* CH₃: Represents a methyl group at the beginning of the chain.
* (CH₂)₇: Represents seven methylene groups (CH₂) in a row, forming the main carbon chain.
* OH: Represents a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to the first carbon atom, making it an alcohol.
Here's a more visual representation of the structural formula:
```
CH₃-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-CH₂-OH
```
This shows the linear arrangement of the carbon atoms and the hydroxyl group at the end.
