What is the most common fixative used in haematology?
methyl alcohol
Why is benzophenone soluble in methyl alcohol while biphenyl is not?
Yes it is definitely soluble in methyl alcohol through experimental observation but to the extent of polarity is what i am trying to figure out. There should be a difference in solubility of benzophenone in methyl alcohol and in hexane. It is def. partially soluble in hexane and im guessing it is suppose to be completely soluble in methyl alcohol. I must have just messed up in the lab
What is the pH of an acidic compound is most likely to be?
greater than 7
What color is methyl orange when hydrochloric acid is added?
The effect of dilute HCl on the colors of the methyl orange will most likely be red. This is assumed because of both most likely having a pH of 3.1, which will end up red.
What is the most important sulfur compound?
The most common compound that contains sulfur is sulfur dioxide. It is an acidic gas in the room temperature. Industrially, it is used in the manufacturing of sulfuric acid. It is one of the major substances that cause acid rains.

What is the most dangerous type of alcohol to drink?
Everclear which is 95% alcohol or Moonshine which is illegal in alot of states
Which substance is added for the denaturation of ethyl alcohol unfit for drinking?
Many different denaturing methods have been used. The most common is adding methanol (methyl/wood alcohol). Other common additives are acetone, methyl ethyl ketone and methyl isobutyl keytone.
What is the pH of an acidic compound is most likely to be?
greater than 7
Can methyl alcohol or similar chemicals increase blood alcohol levels?
Blood alcohol refers to ethanol. Methyl alcohol will enter the bloodstream and be metabolized by the liver into formaldehyde (embalming fluid) which is a deadly poison. Oddly, the only antidote to methanol poisoning is ethyl alcohol, which slows down the liver's metabolism of the methanol and MAY allow it to clear from the body without killing you. The most common side-effects of methyl alcohol poisoning -- apart from death -- are blindness and kidney failure.
Is ethanol a mixture or compound?
Ethanol is a compound (organic). Ethanol is abbreviated as EtOH, using the common organic chemistry notation of representing the ethyl group (C2H5) with Et. This designation is used both by EMS and Hospital ER staff when describing alcohol intoxication, and is found in most chemistry textbooks as well.Ethanol is a straight-chain alcohol, and its molecular formula is C2H5OH. An alternative notation is CH3-CH2-OH, which indicates that the carbon of a methyl group (CH3-) is attached to the carbon of a methylene group (-CH2-), which is attached to the oxygen of a hydroxyl group (-OH). Its empirical formula is C2H6O, making it an isomer of dimethyl ether.
What is wood naphtha?
Wood Naphtha is Methanol, also known as Methyl Alcohol, Wood Alcohol and Wood Spirits. Its most common uses are as a Solvent and as an Anti-Freeze.
Can evry kind of alcohol kill you?
There are dozens of different kinds of alcohol. It is probably safe to assume that enough of any of them would kill you, since too much of just about anything can be fatal, including water. The three most common kinds, ethyl alcohol (beverage alcohol), isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and methyl alcohol ("wood" alcohol) will definitely kill you in sufficient quantity. In fact, the last two will do it even quicker than beverage alcohol, and with methyl you get to go blind, too.
What color is methyl orange when hydrochloric acid is added?

Is alcohol more acidic than water?
Generally yes, water has a higher Ka value than most alcohols including beverage alcohol.
What chemical compound makes up most of the alcohol that people consume?
The only drinking alcohol is ethanol - C2H5OH.
