Ethanol extracts chlorophyll from leaf .
So people wouldnt leaf it at the bar haha
No, alcohol does not spoil
It really depends on the type of leaf and the color of the leaf.
It not so much soaks up alcohol itself, but stops the stomach from absorbing as much of it.
To kill it. Then the experiment for 'photosynthesis' can take place.
Alcohol is a solvent: It dissolves stuff. The leaf is porous, full of holes. When the leaf is placed in the alcohol, the alcohol gets into the leafs, and dissolves the pigments in the leaf, probably chlorophyll, which is green. This will turn the alcohol green.
you have to soak it in alcohol
Soak them in rubbing alcohol.
Boiling a leaf in alcohol removes its chlorophyll, so the leaf loses its green colour.
it turns green because the chlorophyll is evaporated out
because some parts of the leaf will not dissolve in the alcohol and are also too heavy to float.
what colour does the clear alcohol become once the leaf is boiled in it
Rubbing alcohol?
The leaf was placed in alcohol wafter being placed in the boiling water to extract the green pigment from the leaf.
