In terms of bonding why does ethanol and water miscible?
The polar group -OH of ethanol is bonded to water by hydrogen bonds.
Is ethanol and water miscible?
Yes it is. Because they are both not polar.
Are water and ethanol miscible?
Methanol is miscible in water but Ethyl Acetate is immiscible in water. -- The above answer is correct if asking if each solvent is miscible in water. If you are asking if they are miscible together then the answer is yes, they will mix.
Will ethyl alcohol dissolve in water?
Ethanol and water are freely miscible in all proportions. (In other words: yes, it will).
Will ethanol float or sink?
Ethanol is less dense than water so it will initially float on a water surface. Given that ethanol is totally miscible with water, an ethanol layer on top of a water layer will diffuse into the water while the water will diffuse into the ethanol until a single uniform composition solution of alcohol and water is achieved.
What pairs of substances are miscible water and oxygen water and gasoline water and sodium chloride water and ethanol?
Water and ethanol are miscible.
What is miscible ethanol and water or water and oil?
Ethanol and water are miscible. Think of alcoholic drinks, the alcohol and water do not form separate layers.
Is ethanol and water can mix together?
yes. ethanol and water are soluble / miscible
Why is liquid water and ethanol described as miscible?
Because a mixture of ethanol and water in any proportions forms a single phase liquid at standard temperature and pressure. That is the meaning of "miscible".
In terms of bonding why does ethanol and water miscible?
The polar group -OH of ethanol is bonded to water by hydrogen bonds.
Which two are miscible with one another oil water and ethanol?

Is ethanol and water miscible?

Is ethyl alcohol miscible with water?
YES!!!! Ethyl alcohol is the alcohol; that humans drink in beers wines and spirits. It is miscible(mixed) with water and other substances to make alcoholic drinks. It modern IUPAC name is 'Ethanol' , and its formula is CH3CH2OH .
Examples of miscible liquids?
Two miscible liquids are: Alcohol and water.Sorry if this isn't what you wanted.
Are ethanol and isopropanol miscible?
Yes, they are completely miscible.
Why is it not possible to use ethanol to extract an organic compound from water?
Because ethanol and water are miscible solutions, that is that they can mix together or co-dissolve.
