What chemical does the rubbing alcohol have that makes it stingy when applied to wounds?
The alcohol.
Can rubbing alcohol take out permanent marker?
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.
What is the pH number of 70 percent alcohol?
Rubbing alcohol is diluted isopropanol. The formula for isopropanol is (CH3)2CHOH or simply C3H8O.
Why does isopropyl alcohol work to remove sharpie stains?

What chemical in rubbing alcohol doesn't freeze?
Because some chemicals in the alcohol has a freezing temperature lower than that of H2O.
What is the chemical formula rubbing alcohol?
Rubbing alcohol is a mixture of ethanol, iso-propanol, a dye etc.
Chemical formula for rubbing alcohol?
This is ethanol (C2H5OH) with some added substances to modify the color, odor and taste.
What chemical does the rubbing alcohol have that makes it stingy when applied to wounds?
The alcohol.
Is there another scientific name for rubbing alcohol?
Ethanol. That what I learned in AP Bio. Yeast cells make it when they have no oxygen.
What is the best chemical to use on earrings?
Rubbing alcohol
What is the chemical formula for rubbing alcohol?
There is no exact formula. Denatured alcohol is mostly pure ethanol (drinking alcohol) which has had something added to make it poisonous (denatured or unnatural) so that it cannot be drunk. Different substances can be added for this purpose... thus no formula.

What chemical smells like rubbing alcohol but is not flammable?
Ammonium Fluoride smells like rubbing alcohol but is not flammable. Alcohol itself is extremely flammable and dangerous when exposed to heat.
When rubbing alcohol is rubbed on your skin, it evaporates very quickly it is a chemical or physical property?
Chemical.
What is the pH number of 70 percent alcohol?
Rubbing alcohol is diluted isopropanol. The formula for isopropanol is (CH3)2CHOH or simply C3H8O.
What is the chemical symbol for the compound rubbing alcohol?
One is that it is quite flammable. It's not clear what chemical properties you mean however. It is called isopropyl alcohol, isopropanol, or 2-propanol, or propan-2-ol. It's chemical formula is C3H8O As regards its physical properties, it is a clear liquid, with a strong odor. It is also fairly volatile (evaporates easily). It's molar mass is 60.10 g/mole, it's density is .785 g/cm3, its melting point is -89 °C and its boiling point is 82.3 °C.It is completely soluble (miscible) in water, ethanol, ether, acetone and toluene, and slightly soluble in brine,For more information, see the Web Links to the left of this answer.
