Is rubbing alcohol a hydrocarbon?
No it is not due to having oxygen in it and the OH group. So ethanol is not a hydrocarbon.
What makes ethanol a saturated hydrocarbon?
It is a saturated hydrocarbon because it contains no double bonds in its structure. The general formula for alcohol series is CnH2n+1OH. For example, structure of ethanol is as follows:- H3C-CH2-OH
What is a molecule containing only carbon and hydrogen called?
A hydrocarbon.
Which two are miscible with one another oil water and ethanol?
Water and ethanol. Oil is immiscible with either of those.
Why is the citrus oil in fruits flammable?
Because its mostly a hydrocarbon.
What is a bioethanol?
A bioethanol is a variety of ethanol produced, by fermentation of crops, for use as a biofuel.
What is the difference between ethanol and bioethanol?
the only difference is that bioethanol comes from a biological source (a plant or animal)
What is ethanol's hydrocarbon formula?
The hydrocarbon ethanol has a chemical formula of CH3CH2OH.
Is ethanol a holoenzyme?
No,you idiot. Ethanol is a hydrocarbon compound.
Is rubbing alcohol a hydrocarbon?
No it is not due to having oxygen in it and the OH group. So ethanol is not a hydrocarbon.
What household items contain solid hydrocarbon?
Crude Oil, Ethanol ( Alcohol ), Fossil Fuels.
What is the source of bioethanol?
Almost any starchy or sugary feedstock may be used for fermentation to produce ethanol. Sugar, corn, rice, and so on.
How is biomass converted into ethinol?
Ethanol (ethyl alcohol), also known as grain alcohol, is the same 'alcohol' found in all alcoholic drinks. Bioethanol is simply ethanol that has been produced using biological materials (biomass) for feedstocks. Since it relies on sunlight and photosynthesis to contribute to the growth of that biomass (plants, grasses, corn, wheat, etc), bioethanol is a renewable fuel. Bioethanol is made when biomass is converted to sugars, which are then fermented into ethanol. The process of hydrolysis seperates most of the water from ethanol, leaving an end product that is generally about 95% ethanol and 5% water. Bioethanol can be blended with conventional gasoline at any ratio, but the most common blend is E10 (10% ethanol, 90% gasoline, sometimes called Gasohol), which can be used in existing gasoline engines without modifications and without affecting vehicle warranty. Higher blends, such as E85, require a Flexible fuel vehicle (FFV).source: http://www.futurecars.com/futurefuels/bioethanol.html

Can you mix oil and ethanol?
Yes, we can mix oil and ethanol. This is because oil can dissolve in ethanol.
Can cooking oil dissolve in ethanol hot?
Cooking oil is dissolved in hot ethanol.
