They're two totally different tests. The alcohol emulsion test is for fat, and it works because water and oil don't mix. The reaction in the Benedict's test requires heat to work.
It takes 2.46 calories of heat to raise the temperature of one gram of ethyl alcohol. Calories are the energy available from the metabolism of a food.
Alcohol is not an effective method for killing roundworm eggs. It is recommended to use specific disinfectants or heat to effectively eliminate roundworm eggs.
The process of changing alcohol to water, carbon dioxide, and energy is called oxidation. This chemical reaction involves the breaking down of alcohol molecules into simpler compounds, releasing energy in the form of heat and light.
When heat is added to the water, the molecules move faster. When the water reaches the boiling point (100 Degree Celsius), the water molecules at the surface of the water would break apart with the other molecules and escape (evaporate). When they evaporate, the water molecules changes state and becomes water vapour.
Yes, a mordant is used in the acid-fast stain technique. The mordant used is heat to help drive the primary stain, usually carbol-fuchsin, into acid-fast bacteria, such as Mycobacterium species, which resist decolorization with acid-alcohol.
Either consumed or applied to the skin, alcohol increases heat dissipation.
Rubbing alcohol, or isopropyl alcohol, contains a compound that causes a cooling sensation when applied to the skin. This compound, when it comes in contact with the skin, evaporates rapidly and draws heat away from the body, creating a stinging sensation.
When heat is applied to alcohol during a chemical process, it can speed up the reaction and increase the rate of product formation. This can lead to a more efficient and faster completion of the chemical process.
Unplug the device, and sterilize with isopropyl alcohol applied to a washcloth, then allow the alcohol to evaporate. Even turning on the device should kill them due to the heat, but it's a good idea to use alcohol first.
Rubbing alcohol feels cold when applied to the skin because it has a lower boiling point than body temperature. As it evaporates quickly upon contact with the skin, it absorbs heat from the surrounding area, giving a cooling sensation.
rubbing alcohol has higher specific heat
Alcohol does not absorb heat. It is used, because it evaporates quickly, thus drawing heat away.
No, it is not safe to heat alcohol in the microwave as it can create a fire hazard due to the flammable nature of alcohol vapors.
alcohol causes dehydration which makes you more vulnerable to heat stroke
Alcohol helps heat escape the body.
It is normally benedicts solution. Add about 1/4 of the total sugar solution to a test tube and heat it in a hot water bath at around 50 degrees C for 5 min. For example, heat 40mL of sugar water (C12H22O11 aq ) with 10mL of Benedicts soluton (copper and sodium salts). If it is a positive test it will turn yellow.
The density of a fluid goes down (becomes less dense) when heat is applied.
