Is benzene an element or a compound?
Benzene (C6H6), simplest organic, aromatic hydrocarbon and parent compound of numerous important aromatic compounds. Benzene is a colourless liquid with a characteristic odour and is primarily used in the production of polystyrene. It is highly toxic and is a known carcinogen; exposure to it may cause leukemia. As a result, there are strict controls on benzene emissions.

Is there phthalates in acrylic paint?
In most acrylic paints yes. You can buy phthalate free paint but if it doesn't state it is so, i would assume there is phthalates in it. Most paint you will purchase is largely comprised of toluene, xylene, Ethyl benzene, and phthalates, as well as pigments and dye. It is pretty harsh stuff.

How do you separate ethyl alcohol from a mixture?
First, place the beverage in a container that can be sealed (a flask would be perfect.) Connect this container to another that is submerged in ice water. It may be a good idea to attach a balloon to this apparatus to allow for the air expansion. Then heat up the container with the beverage in it until it starts simmering (don't make it boil rapidly because then you'll be creating water vapour.) In theory, the Ethanol will evaporate and go to the second container and then condense on the sides of the container. This process will undoubtfully ruin the taste of the wine or beer, but you'll have a very strong cleaning agent in the other container (that you should certainly not consider drinking!)
