Ethanol can be separated from rum through a process called distillation. In distillation, the mixture is heated to convert the ethanol into a vapor. The vapor is then cooled and condensed back into a liquid form, separating it from the other components of rum. This process takes advantage of the difference in boiling points between ethanol and the other components, allowing for their separation.

Is rum flammable?
The ethanol from rum is flammable.
How do you separate seudoephedrine from guaifenesin?
1) ethanol 2) chloroform
What is the general formula for ester?
ester is formed by the reactin alcohol with an acid .with the elimination of water.
What is the appearance for ethanol?
Ethanol is a colourless liquid.
Why unable to precipitate DNA?
Ethanol
Is rum flammable?
The ethanol from rum is flammable.
Is rum ahchool?
No. There is no such thing as ahchool. However, rum does contain ethanol, the alcohol responsible for inebriation.
How fractional distillation works?
Fractional distillation is used to separate liquids like water and ethanol the liquid that will come out first is ethanol because it has a lower boiling point. In industrial applications it works to separate various components like crude oil and manufactures spirits like whisky ,rum etc
How do you separate iodine from ethanol?
Evaporation.
Approximately how many kcalories from ethanol are contained in one standard drink of vodka or rum?
There are about 100 kcalories from ethanol in a standard drink of vodka.
How do you separate seudoephedrine from guaifenesin?
1) ethanol 2) chloroform
Can you put rum on a newborns head to relax him?
Doing so might calm a baby because ethanol can be absorbed transdermally.
How do you separate ethanol and sugar?
using the recrystallisation method or by evaporation one can also apply a drying agent to absorb ethanol
What is miscible ethanol and water or water and oil?
Ethanol and water are miscible. Think of alcoholic drinks, the alcohol and water do not form separate layers.
Can you separate water and alcohol?
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 distillationbecause alcohol for eg. methyl alcohol boils @ 64.7 C& water @ 100 C
What 2 physical properties can be used to separate ethanol and water?
density and boiling point
How would separate salt and sugar?
Sugar is soluble in ethanol; sodium chloride is not dissolved.
