Methanol is the simplest alcohol compound, comprised of one carbon atom, oneoxygen atom and fourhydrogen atoms (CH3OH). It is also referred to as wood alcohol, carbonyl and methyl alcohol.

∙ 15y agoAlthough methanol can be produced using a number of raw materials (feedstocks), natural gas is preferred. The methane in natural gas reacts with steam in a reaction called steam-methane reforming; the resultant synthesis gas then reacts with a catalyst to produce methanol and water vapor.

∙ 11y agometh is made of meth, its like asking what water is made of. Meth is not a mixture of substances but a single substance as the result of a synthesis.

What gases are produced when you burn methanol?
carbon dioxide. carbon dioxide.
What compounds are found in methanol?
Methanol is an alcohol and consists of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen its formula is CH3OH
Is methanol a solid?
No, at room temperature methanol is a liquid.
Is Methanol a nonelectrolyte?
Methanol is a nonelectrolyte because it is so weak it is not considered to be an electrolyte. Methanol is too weak to pass on electrons.
What TWO gases are produced when methanol is burned?
If this is from a test paper, I feel your pain! Couldn't find this answer anywhere but I believe that Carbon Dioxide is produced and WATER VAPOUR. Hope I helped:)
Why is methanol produced when you still corn?
safrain ,blue methyl and carbon do oxide is present in it and that why it produces methanol
What mass of methanol (CH3OH) is produced when 140.1 g of carbon monoxide reacts with 12.12 g of hydrogen?
8.20g of carbon monoxide, how many grams of methanol will be produced?
What gases are produced when you burn methanol?
carbon dioxide. carbon dioxide.
What happens when beverages containing aspartame are stored at warm temperatures for prolonged periods?
methanol is produced.
How does ethanol treat methanol poisoning?
Methanol isn't actually poisonous, but the chemicals produced when your body metabolises methanol are. The enzymes that metabolise methanol also metabolise ethanol, but when both are present the ethanol is processed first. Methanol is also removed from the body via the lungs, sweat glands and in urine. Giving ethanol prevents the toxic by products of metabolism whilst these other methods remove the methanol from their system. This treatment only works if given early. It does not reverse the the damage done by methanol that has already been metabolised.
Methanol is combusted to yield 19.5mg of H2O. What is the mass of CO2 produced concomitantly?
The answer is 26,8 mg CO2.
Can methanol ethanol or butanol from biomass replace gasoline in cars in a few years?
I don't think enough could be produced to do this
What is methanol's shape?
methanol is liquid
What compounds are found in methanol?
Methanol is an alcohol and consists of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen its formula is CH3OH
What is an acetyl?
Acetyls are organic compounds that are being produced by reacting acetic acid. The acetic acid used for the production of Acetyls is made by reacting carbon monoxide with methanol. Further, methanol can also be used to produce acetic acid and formaldehyde. Acetyls like vinyl acetate monomer (VAM) are also produced when acetic acid is made to react with ethylene.
When methanol burns and leaves a residue is it a chemical change?
Combustion is a chemical change. You would expect methanol to be fully oxidised to CO2 and water. Any residue could may be due to impurities or more likely to incomplete combustion which produced sooty carbon residues.
Is methanol a solid?
No, at room temperature methanol is a liquid.
