A Homologous Series is a group of organic chemical compounds, usually listed in order of increasing size, that have a similar structure (and hence also similar properties) and whose structures differ only by the number of CH2 units in the main carbon chain

A homologous series is a series of compounds with a similar general formula, possessing similar chemical properties due to the presence of the same functional group, and showing a gradation in physical properties as a result of increase in molecular size and mass. Compounds within a homologous series...

A homologous series is a series of compounds with a similar general formula, possessing similar chemical properties due to the presence of the same functional group, and showing a gradation in physical properties as a result of increase in molecular size and mass. Compounds within a homologous series typically have a fixed set of functional groups that gives them similar chemical and physical properties. (For example, the series of primary straight-chained alcohols has an hydroxyl at the end of the carbon chain.) These properties typically change gradually along the series, and the changes can often be explained by mere differences in molecular size and mass. read less

The only difference between them is -CH2 group i.e in CH3-OH there is no -CH2 group , in CH3-CH2-OH the formula is same as of CH3-OH but it has -CH2 group similarly in C3H7-OH or CH3-CH2-CH2-OH the formula is same as of CH3-OH but it has 2 (-CH2 groups ). read less
