Ethyl alcohol is a liquid because strong hydrogen bonding in it brings the molecules closer together while methyl chloride does not form hydrogen bonding,weaker forces exist between molecules of methyl and chloride due to which they lie at distance from each other till gas form.

Which is more safe to use ethyl alcohol or isopropyl alcohol?
This really depends on what you need to use these alcohols for. While is isopropyl alcohol is rubbing alcohol used for external purposes, ethyl alcohol is for drinking. So, if its for consumption, then ethyl alcohol is safe to use. Ethyl alcohol also is used in products like cough suppressants and mouthwashes.
Will ethyl alcohol float in ethyl alcohol?
No, density of ethanol is round 0.8 g/mL while milk is close to 1.0 g/mL
Why hydrogen chloride is a liquid while hydrogen chloride is a gas?
At the standard temperature and pressure, hydrogen chloride exists as a gas. It does not exist in liquid state, but in aqueous medium along with water as a solvent.
Will milk float in ethyl alcohol?
No, density of ethanol is round 0.8 g/mL while milk is close to 1.0 g/mL
Why ethyl alcohol is a liquid while methyl chloride is a gas?
hydrogen bonding. Water has a very strong covalent bond which creates partial positive and negative charges on the Hydrogen and Oxygen atoms in the water molecule so that an adjacent water molecule will be attracted very strongly keeping the water as a liquid while methane has nonpolar covalent bonds. These molecules have no distinct positive or negative ends and almost no intermolecular attractions, so methane is a gas.
What is different between rubbing alcohol and isoprolhyt alcohol?
They're the same (isopropyl alcohol), generally speaking. Although there might be another "alcohol" compound that also goes by the name "rubbing alcohol".
Can you drink hand sanitizer?
AnswerThe answer is an unequivocal NO. The alcohol used in these products is either ethyl or isopropyl alcohol. While ethyl alcohol is what is in your booze, the purity, concentrations, and other ingredients in hand sanitizer makes wholly unsuitable for consumption. isopropyl alcohol is unsafe for ingestion at any concentration, and will cause a wretched death faster than ethyl alcohol could ever hope to...if ethyl alcohol was sentient.If you were foolish or desperate enough to drink it, you would, at best, get nauseous and vomit or at worst sink into a coma and suffer irreversible brain damage. In a recent case study, test subjects Robert J Ford and Donovan L Anderson from Delaware got addicted to consuming some free samples of Hand Sanitizer (Compliments of Biaxin XL). Unfortunately, the Sanitizer was expired and mutated into Tequila. Both subjects are now in 12-step programs of AA.
Why is t-butyl chloride insoluble in water whereas t-butyl alcohol is soluble in water?
It is because t-butyl alcohol forms an intra-molecular hydrogen bonding i. e. while t-butyl alcohol does not.
Give four properties of phenol to show how it differ from alcohol?
1-Phenol (carbolic acid) is acidic in nature and turns blue litmus red while alcohol (ethanol) does not, 2-phenol gives violet or blue colour with neutral ferric chloride solution while alcohol does not, 3-phenol freezes to a solid in fridge while alcohol does not, 4-phenol produces bubbles on rough iron surface while alcohol does not.
Why do all liquids NOT evaporate at the same time?
Because all liquids have different boiling points. For instance: the boiling point of ethyl alcohol (the kind you drink) is 172.4 oF, while that of methyl alcohol (the kind that will kill you or make you blind if you drink it) is 151 oF, and isopropyl alcohol (the kind you use for a massage) is 177 oF. The boiling point of glycerine is 554 oF, while that of hydrogen is -423 oF.
What phase change occurs before and after rubbing alcohol absorbs?
Before rubbing alcohol absorbs, it is a liquid. While it absorbs (heat), the phase change occurring is evaporation. As the alcohol takes in heat, it turns into a gas.
Why hydroloric acid is solute and water is solvent?
If you meant hydrogen chloride, and at "ordinary" temperatures it makes sense, since it is a gas while water is liquid
