Jul 1, 2019 at 15:39 comment added Ivan Neretin The -OH group is pretty much free to rotate around. If not for this fact, your teacher would be wrong just once.
Jul 1, 2019 at 13:20 comment added user55119 You can create two STATIC images of methanol that are non-superimposable mirror images but that does not make methanol optically active. Every conformation has a mirror image, i.e., a racemate, or a plane of symmetry. Both conditions lead to a lack of optical activity. Consider changing classes.
