Does water or rubbing alcohol dissolve the fastest?
Rubbing alcohol evaporates faster than Pepsi.
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.
Why does isopropyl alcohol work to remove sharpie stains?

When water is mixed with rubbing alcohol the two liquids completely dissolve. Are the two liquids miscible or are they immiscible?
Water and rubbing alcohol are totally miscible.
Can table salt dissolve in alcohol?
Ethanol and methanol are polar solvents (like water), and so they CAN dissolve many salts.While the carbon chain is nonpolar, the hydroxide chains are polar. Only the alcohols with carbon chains longer than 7 are immiscible. Table salt (NaCl) will dissolve in ethanol, though not as well as in water.
Why does rubbing alcohol dissolve non polar substances?
2-propanol, as rubbing alcohol is known by chemists, contains a nonpolar hydrocarbon group. This allows it to dissolve nonpolar substances.

Why Is rubbing alcohol nonpolar?
We just learned this in science class. Nonpolar means that it has an even amount of shared electrons. Just normal electrons though, it doesn't matter if they are valence or not.:D hope i helped.its non polar
What happens if you mix sugar and rubbing alcohol?
If there is enough liquid, the sugar will dissolve, as rubbing alcohol is a mixture of water (about 30%) with an alcohol. Sugar is soluble in both liquids. * BTW, rubbing alcohol is poisonous. *

Is sand soluble in alcohol?
Rubbing alcohol will not completely dissolve sand, only partially. It is slightly soluble due to rubbing alcohol containing some water.
