Ethanol---it has stronger intermolecular forces due to its ability to hydgrogen bond (because it has an -OH group) that propane. Both of them have similar dispersion forces because they have around the same number of electrons, so the presence of hydrogen bonding in ethanol will give ethanol the greater intermolecular forces and hence the higher surface tension.

∙ 11y agobecause water has strong hydrogen bonding than ethanol.As water forms two hydrogen bonds n ethanol forms one n also ethanol has bulky group(C2H5) attached to oxygen which reduces the power of oxygen to draw the shared pair of electrons(with H) towards itself.

From ethanol and methanol which is more soluble in water?
Methanol
Which is more soluble in water propane table salt propanol or butane?
Table Salt
Rank the following molecules in order from most soluble in water to least soluble in water methane hexanol table salt propane?
In order to do this, you need to refer to the substances electronegativity. Greater electronegativity results in the substance being more soluble. so... Table salt hexanol propane methane
Solubility of ethyl cellulose?
Practically insoluble in water, in glycerol, and in propane-1,2-diol, but soluble in varying proportions in certain organic solvents, depending upon the ethoxyl content. Ethyl cellulose containing less than 46-48% of ethoxyl groups is freely soluble in tetrahydrofuran, in methyl acetate, in chloroform, and in aromatic hydrocarbon ethanol mixtures. Ethylcellulose containing 46- 48% or more of ethoxyl groups is freely soluble in ethanol, in methanol, in toluene, in chloroform, and in ethyl acetate.
Which Is more soluble hexane benzene ethanol?
It depends on the substance it is put in.
Is 2-naphthol soluble in ethanol?
yes, it is much more soluble in ethanol than in water.
Which is more soluble in water CH3CH2OH or NaCl?
Sodium chloride is very soluble in water. For ethanol the term soluble is not so adequate: water and ethanol are totally miscible.
From ethanol and methanol which is more soluble in water?
Methanol
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.

Is ammonium chloride soluble in ethanol?
Yes, ethanol belongs to the alcohol functional group therefore polar, and BaCl2 is polar, so it does dissolve.
Solubility of ethyl cellulose?

Is heptane more soluble in hexane than ethanol?
of course
Which Is more soluble hexane benzene ethanol?
It depends on the substance it is put in.
Is iodine and water heterogeneous mixture?
Iodine is much more soluble in ethanol than in water, so it will usually form a homogeneous mixture. Of course, if you add more solid iodine than will dissolve in your quantity of ethanol at the temperature at which you are working, the excess solid will sink to the bottom. In that case, you have a heterogeneous mixture.
