Read this story to find the answer I was walking my dogs one day when suddenly they said bark bark they ran to an empty bottle of alcohol and I was all like omg I showed it to my mom she said it looked yummy and that I could have it and I was all like omg I'm under 21 she said who cares so I went in my laboratory and studied it and I was all like omg I knew the answer was something I did not know. THE END.
Rubbing alcohol can remove gum because is a solvent for gum.
A solution in alcohol is called a tincture.
isopropanol/Ispropyl (or called rubbing alcohol) is a solvent that has polar molecules (molecules with a positive charged molecule that sticks to a negative charged molecule). If you sniff a sharpie, it has a sharp, alcohol smell, right? Sharpies have n-propanol alcohol, n-butanol, and diacetone alcohol in them. They have pretty similar structures to rubbing alcohol. All alcohol have polar molecules. There is a "like dissolve like" rule. This means Polar solvent+Polar solvent will stick together. OR non-polar solvent+nonpolar solvent will stick together. The closer the types of molecule and chemical make-ups are, the more likely they are to dissolve or be removed.
There are countless uses for rubbing alcohol. Some of the most popular involve stain and paint removal, since rubbing alcohol is an excellent solvent. It is also an effective cleaner, particularly when sterilization is required.
Double the amount of solvent.
Alcohol is a type of organic solvent. Regardless, when alcohol is the majority of a mixture, it is considered the solvent, and when something else is the majority of the mixture, it is the solute.
The composition of rubbing alcohols may be variable.
Rubbing alcohol.
3 percent alcohol
Rubbing alcohol can remove gum because is a solvent for gum.
I think it is alcohol it is rubbing alcohol!
200 ml X .50 = 100 ml
A solution in alcohol is called a tincture.
Rubbing alcohol works as a solvent on ink stains because it has polar molecule. Ink also has polar molecule so the like items dissolve each other.
For perfumes the most used solvent is the ethyl alcohol.
Because it is polar and forms hydrogen bonds.
