Ethanol is an alcohol. it mixes with water and burns to make carbon dioxide and water. The carbon connected to the O-H molecule in ethanol reacts with oxygen to make ethanoic acid (found in vinegar).

What type of bond is ethanol?
Ethanol, C2H5OH contains covalent bonds. There are hydrogen bonds between molecules in liquid ethanol.
Would Citric acid react with Ethanol How reactive is Ethanol or Ethyl Alcohol to Acids?
Ethanol would react with citric acid, ethanol or ethyl alcohols are reactive when mixed with acids. Depending on the type of acid the reactions and products are different.
What to do to make ethanol as water immiscible?
Ethanol and water both have O-H bonds. So Water molecules make Strong H bonds with ethanol. Therefor these 2 compounds are immiscible.
What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?
Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
Is ethanol hydrophilic?
Surely it is. It can form hydrogen bonds with water.

Are any what hydrogen bonds ethanol propanol butanol pentane methanol hexane?
Alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, propanol, butanol etc can have hydrogen bonds.
Why are single bonds the hardest to break?
because single bonds are less reactive
How many bonds between carbon in ethanol?
20
What happens when ethanol reacts with bromine water?
Ethanol dissolves in water, as the polar ethanol molecules form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.
In terms of bonding why does ethanol and water miscible?
The polar group -OH of ethanol is bonded to water by hydrogen bonds.
Is ethanol hydrophilic?
Surely it is. It can form hydrogen bonds with water.
Why ethanol cannot react with bromine water?
The unsaturated compounds having double or triple bonds under go the addition reactions with Bromine water, ethanol does not have the double or triple bonds
Why is ethanol solubile in water but propane is not?
In general terms, because (1) the carbon-oxygen and hydrogen-oxygen bonds in ethanol are much more polar than any of the bonds in propane; (2) the oxygen atom in ethanol can form hydrogen bonds with the hydrogen atoms in water, but there is not such possibility with propane; and (3) propane contains more carbon atoms per molecule than ethanol.
How many bonds are there in ethanol or dimethylether?
Ethanol has one hydrogen-oxygen bond, one carbon-oxygen bond, one carbon-carbon bond, and five carbon-hydrogen bonds. Dimethyl ether has six carbon-hydrogen bonds and two carbon-oxygen bonds.
