What else can I help you with?
If you boil ethyl alcohol does the chemical structure change?
No. The chemical structure of ethyl alcohol gas is the same as ethyl alcohol liquid.
What is the difference between ethyl and methyl alcohol?
Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, is madeof molecules containing one methyl group, with a chemical structure of CH3-OH. Methanol is highly toxic if inhaled, drunk, or absorbed through the skin and can cause blindness. Ethyl alcohol is the same as ethanol or grain alcohol. I has two methyl groups and looks like CH3-CH3-OH. This is the type of alcohol found in the alcoholic beverages people consume. Both compounds are organic and are good solvents and fixatives.
Is 90 percent isopropyl and grain alcohol the same thing?
No, 90% isopropyl alcohol and grain alcohol are not the same. Isopropyl alcohol is a type of alcohol used for cleaning and disinfecting, while grain alcohol is a type of alcohol often used for consumption purposes in beverages. They have different uses and properties.
Why ethyl alcohol and water cannot be separated into pure components by fractional distillation?
Due to an effect called the aziotropic effect. Some of the water remains bound to the ethanol raising the BP and getting dragged over with it. The same thing happens with sugars from a wash. Further to this, ethanol is hygroscopic so it will absorb water from the atmosphere when exposed. The best you can do is between 90 - 98% ethanol.
Is denatured alcohol and isoproyl alcohol the same thing?
No, denatured alcohol and isopropyl alcohol are not the same. Denatured alcohol is ethanol that has additives to make it toxic or unpalatable, often used as a solvent. Isopropyl alcohol is a different type of alcohol often used as a disinfectant or cleaner.
What is the difference between ethyl alcohol and ethanol?
There is no difference between ethyl alcohol and ethanol, they are the same substance. Ethanol is the chemical name for the alcohol commonly found in beverages and used in industry.
Is ethanol the same thing as ethyl alcohol?
No. See the Related Questions links for the difference.
Is alcohol and ethanol the same?
In common terminology the term alcohol refers to ethanol. However, in chemistry ethanol is only one of many kinds of alcohol. Only ethanol (a.k.a. ethyl alcohol) is used in beverages.
Is alchol in hand sanitizer same as in a alchol beverage?
As long as the hand sanitizer uses Ethyl Alcohol (Ethanol), not Isopropyl alcohol, then yes. Most do, like Purell, 62% Ethanol.
If you boil ethyl alcohol does the chemical structure change?
No. The chemical structure of ethyl alcohol gas is the same as ethyl alcohol liquid.
Is ethanol also known as methyl alcohol?
Methanol is known as methyl alcohol. Methanol's scientific name is where the "alcohol" variant name has come from. Essentially, alcohol and methanol is the same thing, however there are different types of alcohol.
What is the difference between ethyl and methyl alcohol?
Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, is madeof molecules containing one methyl group, with a chemical structure of CH3-OH. Methanol is highly toxic if inhaled, drunk, or absorbed through the skin and can cause blindness. Ethyl alcohol is the same as ethanol or grain alcohol. I has two methyl groups and looks like CH3-CH3-OH. This is the type of alcohol found in the alcoholic beverages people consume. Both compounds are organic and are good solvents and fixatives.
What if you put in flex gas in Daewoo Lanos?
You can not put E85 Ethanol fuel into a car not designed for itas the Ethanol fuel (ethyl alcohol), {the same type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages} will destroy the fuel system ( "O" rings , lines, ect...)
Is rubbing alcohol same as isopropyl alcohol the same?
The two are quite different. Structurally they are very different and their chemical properties are quite different as well. Isopropyl alcohol is a secondary alcohol with formula C3H7OH, and benzyl alcohol is a primary alcohol with formula C6H5CH2OH and includes an aromatic benzene ring.
What is the difference between ethyl alcohol and grain alcohol?
Ethyl alcohol, also known as ethanol, is the type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages and is produced through the fermentation of sugars by yeast. Grain alcohol, or neutral grain spirit, refers to a high-proof distilled spirit made from grains like corn, wheat, or barley. While ethyl alcohol is specifically used for consumption, grain alcohol is often used as a solvent or base for making flavored spirits.
How do you produce isopropyl alcohol out of ethanol?
You use concentrated phosphoric or sulfuric acid at high temperatures in order to dehydrate it and eliminate the OH group. Therefore, conc. H3PO4 or conc. H2SO4 at 300 ˚C.
What is the chemical formula for the alcohol that you drink?
The chemical formula for alcohol that you drink is C6O2Na4 OK, this answer is completely false. First and foremost, for any organic compound to be classified as an "alcohol" it has to have an "-OH" functional group. This C6O2Na4 answer has no Hydrogen at all!?? The alcohol you drink in alcoholic beverages is ETHYL ALCOHOL also known as ETHANOL. The chemical formula for ethanol is most commonly written as CH3CH2OH (or in the condensed empirical formula as C2H5OH or simply C2H6O). If you look up ethyl alcohol on wikipedia you can actually see figures of the actual molecule. The difference between ethyl alcohol and methyl alcohol (CH3OH) is the extra methylene group (CH2). Methyl Alcohol is highly poisonous and can be fatal. However, the immediate treatment for methanol poisoning is to consume mass quantities of ethanol very quickly since the body used the same metabolic pathways to break them both down. (Flood the pathway with ethanol which the body can break down). So every time you get wasted, just remember, you're protecting yourself from methanol poisoning!
