only glycerol is an organic compound. Rest are inorganic.
The polarity of the water molecule, which causes hydrogen bonds to form between the water molecules, is the characteristic that enables it to act as a lubricant.
The 3 hydroxyl groups in glycerine/glycerol form intermolecular hydrogen bonds. this strong intermolecular attractions causes it to be a viscous liquid.
Technically speaking, lubricant is a substance that reduces friction between objects. Albeit water is not a great lubricant at all, in the term though, yes water is a lubricant. There are many great lubricants which are water (aqua) based.
Glycerol replace water. Water can damage because it crystallize when lower 0 C. And also bi-layer membranes is supported in liquid state by it.
Glycerol is miscible with water without a chemical reaction.
Glycerol is very soluble in water. This is due to the reason that glycerol has three hydrophilic hydroxyl grups in its structure which make it very soluble in water.
No, water is not lubricant. for example:- if water is spread on ground then we slip then people thinks that water is lubricant but is not the case so the floor is smooth the water is not lubricant. oil and grease are lubricant and they are used in machines.
Yes. Glycerol is miscible (soluble) in water, so it will make a solution.
The reaction of glycerol and water leads to the glycerol competing with the hydrogen bonds of water molecules. This disrupts the formation of ice crystals, depressing the freezing point of water.
The wet road surface has less friction as the water interacts with the rubber and acts somewhat like a lubricant
yes
Water based lubricant
Glycerin is another name for glycerol, which is a pure compound, not a mixture. However, if you leave pure glycerol exposed to the air, it will attract moisture, so an opened bottle labeled "glycerin" may in fact contain a mixture of glycerol and water (up to about 20% water).
A well slide is a slide with one or more depressions in it, usually used for viewing marine life.
