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".

Which two are miscible with one another oil water and ethanol?

Water and ethanol. Oil is immiscible with either of those.


Why are liquid water and ethanol described as miscible?

Solubility (miscibility when concerning two liquids) depends on the solvent and the solute being able to interact with each other through similar intermolecular forces. Water and ethanol can both participate in hydrogen bonding and therefore they are miscible. Cyclohexane is do not have any polar atoms or bonds and therefore can only interact through London dispersion forces, which is incompatible with water since the small size and polar nature of water precludes it from participating in London dispersion force interactions. Cyclohexane will be miscible in other liquids that share its properties, such as octane.


What pairs of substances are miscible water and oxygen water and gasoline water and sodium chloride water and ethanol?

Water and ethanol are miscible, forming a homogeneous mixture due to similar polarities. Water and sodium chloride are not miscible as sodium chloride dissociates into ions in water. Water and oxygen are not miscible as oxygen is a gas and does not dissolve in water. Water and gasoline are immiscible due to their differing polarities.


Examples of miscible liquids?

Two miscible liquids are: Alcohol and water.Sorry if this isn't what you wanted.


Is ethanol miscible with water?

Yes, ethanol (ethyl alcohol) is miscible with water. This means they can mix in all proportions to form a homogeneous solution. Ethanol has a hydroxyl group that allows it to form hydrogen bonds with water molecules, making it soluble in water.


How is the behavior of ethanol at room temperature?

At room temperature, ethanol is a colorless, flammable liquid with a distinctive odor. It is miscible in water, which means it can fully dissolve in it. Ethanol is commonly used in alcoholic beverages, as a solvent, and as a fuel.


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 can mix together?

Yes, ethanol and water can mix together. They are miscible, meaning they can dissolve in each other in any proportion to form a homogeneous solution. Ethanol is soluble in water because of the presence of an -OH group in its molecular structure.


What is miscible ethanol and water or water and oil?

Ethanol is miscible with water, meaning they can mix in all proportions to form a homogeneous solution. Oil is immiscible with water, meaning they do not mix and instead form separate layers due to differences in polarity and intermolecular forces.


Can excess extra neutral alcohol sediment in water?

Ethanol and water are miscible.


What is miscible solute?

its a liquid that does not mix in water.


What a miscible solution is?

A miscible solution is one in which two or more substances can dissolve in each other in any proportion. This means that the components of the solution are completely soluble in one another, creating a homogeneous mixture. Examples of miscible solutions include ethanol and water.
