To separate these, use distillation. Heat up the solution, and the alcohol will rise. Collect the water, and then the alcohol at the other end of the equipment!
The simplest and most common way of separating water and alcohol is through distillation. Multiple distillations can be conducted to obtain a high percentage of alcohol, but will eventually form an azeotropic mixture, which can be separated no further through simple distillations.
By distillation, alcohol boils at a lower temperature(78.1*C) vs. (100*C)for water. By heating it to its boil point you would turn into vapor. With the right equipment you can channel this vapor to another container where can cool and condense back into a liquid, leaving behind only water.
this is a mixture, called a solution. you could place this mixture into a distiallation apparatus and use the difference in boiling points to separate them. the alcohol has a much lower BP, probably in the range of 50 to 70 centigrade (look it up). if you heat the solution to about 3 degrees above the BP of the alcohol, but many degrees below 100 (the BP for water), only the alcohol will boil off, leaving you with just water in the flask. the alcohol will condense and be captured in the receiving flask at the end of the condenser. (great question, don't forget this answer)
Previous answer: "You can use distillation to separate alcohol and water due to their different boiling points."
Not quite. You can partially separate alcohol (ethanol) and water due to their different boiling points. Water and ethanol form what is called an azeotrope, meaning that at a certain concentration of ethanol (somewhere around 94-96% I think, not sure) you can not separate the water and ethanol to any greater extent through distillation. It is still possible to get 100% ethanol, but this has to be acheived either through exhaustively exact synthesis or using a water sequestration or drying agent on a water ethanol mixture and re-purifying the ethanol by whatever process is relevant.
to separate this liquid -liquid mixture we must use-
fractional distillation
because alcohol for eg. methyl alcohol boils @ 64.7 C
& water @ 100 C
Because the boiling point of isopropanol (rubbing alcohol) and ethyl alcohol are so close (making them an azeotrope), you can't do a standard distillation. Instead you use a technique called azeotropic distillation utilizing methyl ethyl ketone, cyclopentane or 2-pyrrolidinone (among many others) to break the azeotrope.
Alternatively you can perform extractive distillation using salicylic acid or methyl benzoate (among others) as the non-azeotropic solvent.
Wikipedia has articles on both forms of distillation.
To separate an alcohol - water liquid -liquid mixture use fractional distillation. It is still not easy because azeotropes are formed. The distilled alcohol can be dried over quick lime or anhydrous calcium sulfate or similar to remove the water that will still remain.
water and alcohol can be separated by, adsorption.

the separation of alchol from a mixture of alchol is distilation. have fun and enjoy science.

Rubbing alcohol contains two ingredients. One is isopropanol (also called isopropyl alcohol or propan-2-ol), which has C3H7OH as its chemical formula. The other ingredient is water. The rubbing alcohol sold in pharmacies is typically 70% isopropanol by mass and 30% water. It also comes as a 91% isopropanol. The 70% is actually a better disinfectant.Ethyl alcohol is also available as a rubbing alcohol, and is a smaller molecule than isopropanol.Also note that rubbing alcohol that is bought over the counter, especially in the US, is adulterated with all sorts of other molecules, such as benzene and methanol. This is done to keep people from drinking them. (In the US, they are added so that they can be sold without a liquor license.)Read more: What_are_the_ingredients_in_rubbing_alcohol

it could
If it smells like alcohol or nail polish remover you could be a diabetic. If you are a heavy drinker, alcohol comes out of the pores, but usually does not smell like regular rubbing alcohol
No.
You COULD, but it would be inedible. Rubbing alcohol is "denatured", making it toxic to ingest. This is because the Federal government imposes a steep tax on alcohol for consumption.
you can answer that by your mind. you can separate it by using a wire WIREGAUSE.
We could add HCl to the mixture of Zinc and Gold and see which one appear to separate first.

No, it is not okay to shoot up with rubbing alcohol and Klonopin (not kolonopins). The combination of these two items could actually kill you if you shoot up with them.
sure, why not.
