Can you dilute water?
Water is the most common liquid used to dilute solutions (reduce their strength). Adding anything to water will not change its properties, only introduce other chemical properties. That is, if you added alcohol to water, you would be diluting the alcohol, not the water. You can moderate some of the properties of water by heating or cooling it, or adding solid solutes to make a gel or suspension.
What are some physical properities to distinguish water and rubbing alcohol?
Hi Two Physical Properties which can be used are 1)Boiling point difference Water boils at 100C Ethanol boils at 78.30C 2)Ethanol is lighter than water because its density is less than water. Density of ethanol =0.789g/ml Density of water is 1.00g/ml he physical properties of substances are their boiling point,melting point,density ,solubility etc. Dr Vidya Kaushik.
What is result by adding water to alcohol?
diluted alcohol
The concentration of alcohol and water solution is 25 percent alcohol by volume what is volume of alcohol and 200 lM of solution?
If the concentration of alcohol and water solution is 25 percent alcohol by volume, the volume of alcohol in a 200 solution is 50.
What is symbol for alcohol and water?
Alcohol, you mean ethanol (spirit) I suppose, is C2H5OH Water : H2O
What properties do alcohol and water have?

What is the base of common alcohol?
Generally, alcohol is considered neutral. Like water, however, it can behave very weakly as both an acid and its base. Ulike water, though, its basic properties are very slightly stronger than its acidic properties.
What is the color of ethanol in physical properties?
Ethanol i.e. alcohol in its natural state is water white and transparent .
Three similarities between water and ethanol?
Water and alcohols have similar properties because water molecules contain hydroxyl groups that can form hydrogen bonds with other water molecules and with alcohol molecules, and likewise alcohol molecules can form hydrogen bonds with other alcohol molecules as well as with water.

What is the difference between alcohol and water?
Water can dissolve more substances universal solvent. Water exists in three distinctive states, solid (ice), liquid (water) and gaseous (steam or vapor). But alcohol exists only in the single liquid state. Water is a molecular substance while alcohol is a chemical compound. Alcohols have lower boiling points than water.
Are the properties of ethyl alcohol and ethanol the same?
Yes. Ethanol, also called ethyl alcohol, pure alcohol, grain alcohol, or drinking alcohol,
What physical properties do the following substance have in common water oil mercury and alcohol?
They are all liquid at room temperatures.
Is alcohol an anaesthetic?
Alcohol does have anesthetic properties, but it isn't used for that purpose, in the medical industry.
Is there alcohol in water?
In plain tap water, there is no alcohol. There is no alcohol present in any water unless it is labeled that there is alcohol in water. Alcohol can be dumped into the ocean, and then alcohol would be in water, but generally, there is no alcohol in water.
