What is the pH of alchohol?

I don't know the exact answer but take it like this... Carboxilic acids are around 500 times stronger than phenol and have a pH of ~ 3-4, and they will react with any base. Phenol is 1000 times stronger than alcohols and has a pH around 5.5 and will not react with carbonates but will with group 1 metals and group 1 metal hydroxides. On that bases I would assume alcohols would have a pH around 6.4, I do know they don't react with hydroxides or carbonates but will react with group 1 metals. However it does depend on the alcohol most alcohols will not even react with lithium (ethanol is the only one), as the alcohols get longer the less reactive they become, very long chain alcohols may only react with caesium or not at all.


What reacts with carbonates a base or an acid?

As carbonates are mildly basic, anything acid will react with them (releasing carbon dioxide gas).
