The boiling point of alcohol is 173F/78C. Similarly the boiling point of pure water is 212F/100C. Hence the mixing of water and alcohol will have a boiling point that lies between these two ratios.

Why can't and alcohol thermometer be used to measure the boiling point of water?

Because the boiling point of alcohol is lower than the boiling point of water.


What effect does ethanol have on the boiling point of water?

The pure ethanol has the boiling point 78.5 celsius while water has 100 celsius so when water is added to ethanol its boiling point becomes increased.


What has a higher boiling point alcohol or water?

Water has a higher boiling point that alcohol (ethanol). The main reason for this is because water has stronger intermolecular forces holding the molecules together.


How can you separate a mixture of alchohol and water?

Distillation! Water and alcohol have different boiling points; one is lower than the other. Heat the mixture up until it one of the two boils away. In the case of alcohol and water, alcohol has the lower boiling point. Heat the mixture to just above the boiling point of alcohol but below the boiling point of water and voila!- you've separated the mixture.


What happens to the boiling point of water when alcohol is added to it?

Can alcohol and water be seperated by physical means?

Sure! It's called distillation and it's done all the time, especially in Kentucky. Alcohol's boiling point is lower than water's is. If you heat an alcohol-water solution to alcohol's boiling point, the alcohol will boil off leaving the water behind.


Which evaporates faster alcohol or ether?

There are two reasons for this; {1} boiling point: Tthe boiling point of water is greater than that of ether. So when the boiling point is greater then the vapour pressure will be low. {2} intermolecular forces: The second is intermolecular forces. When intermolecular forces are greater then the the boiling point will be greater and if boiling point is greater then the vapor pressure will be low. The inter molecular forces of water is greater than that of ether and so the vapour pressure will be low and and boiling point will be greater.


How do you separate an acid from an alcohol?

water and alcohol have different boiling point; you heat them untill the boiling point of the alcohol( the boiling point of alcohol is lower than water) so that you can collect the evaporated alcohol and left behind the water.


How can one differentiate between water and alcohol with tasting or smelling it?

Boil/Freeze it. The alcohol will have a higher boiling point and lower freezing point than the water will.


What is separation method for alcohol from beer?

Alcohol can be separated from beer by distillation; alcohol has a lower boiling point than water.


What happens when you boil alcohol?

Alcohol has a lower boiling point than water. Naturally the alcohol evaporates leaving the flavanoids and the water. If you boil 100 % alcohol, then it would act like plain water. It will boil until it all evaporates.
