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.
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.
Is alcohol solution boiling point higher or lower than salt solution?
Lower. The boiling point of ethanol is 78 degrees C. Adding salt to water raises the boiling point of that solution above 100 degrees C.
Goes salt lower boiling temperature of water?
Salt will lower the melting point, and raise the boiling point of water.
Why acetone lowers the boiling point of water whereas salt and sugar raise the boiling point and lower the melting point?
Acetone is a liquid with a boiling point lower than that of water; the other two are solids.
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.
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 is separation method for alcohol from beer?
Alcohol can be separated from beer by distillation; alcohol has a lower boiling point than 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.
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.

Which has a lower boiling point butane or water?
benzene has lower boiling point than water
What does the boiling of salt water compare to the boiling point of fresh water?
The boiling point of freshwater is lower than the boiling point of saltwater.
Goes salt lower boiling temperature of water?
Salt will lower the melting point, and raise the boiling point of water.
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.
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.
