Why boiling point of ethyl alcohol is higher as compared to dimethyl ether?

The presence of strong hydrogen bonding in ethyl alcohol (when compared to that of dimethylether) increases its boiling point.


When will liquid alcohol change to vapor?

Any form of liquid alcohol will change to vapor when its temperature reaches the boiling point (different for each type of alcohol).Alcohol (ethyl alcohol) is a volatile liquid and changes in to vapours at every temperature although its boiling point is 78.5 Celsius.


What would be the effect on the boiling point of ethyl alcohol if the pressure were reduced during the distillation process?

It would decrease


How do you separate ethyl alcohol from a mixture?

First, place the beverage in a container that can be sealed (a flask would be perfect.) Connect this container to another that is submerged in ice water. It may be a good idea to attach a balloon to this apparatus to allow for the air expansion. Then heat up the container with the beverage in it until it starts simmering (don't make it boil rapidly because then you'll be creating water vapour.) In theory, the Ethanol will evaporate and go to the second container and then condense on the sides of the container. This process will undoubtfully ruin the taste of the wine or beer, but you'll have a very strong cleaning agent in the other container (that you should certainly not consider drinking!)

Boiling point of ethyl butyrate: + 121 °C.


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 is the boiling point of alcohol?

There are many different kinds of alcohol, and each has its own boiling point. Here are just the first two: Methyl alcohol, (methanol) - B.P. = 64.7 °C, 148.5 F° (337.8 K) Ethyl alcohol (ethanol) - B.P. = 78.4 °C, 173.1 F° (351.6 K)


Is ethyl alcohol soluble in water?

Yes, ethanol (ethyl alcohol), as being a fluid by itself, is in any ratio miscible with ('soluble in') water.At 96% ethanol the mixture has the lowest boiling point, so destillation of a water-ethanol will never give a higher ethanol content.


Why can't and alcohol thermometer be used to measure the boiling point of water?

Because the boiling point of alcohol is lower than the boiling point of water.

Liquid alcohol will change to vapor when its temperature reaches the A boiling point B fusing point C freezing point D melting point?

A given form of liquid alcohol will turn to vapor at its boiling point, which is different for each type of alcohol.


Why ethyl alcohol is vapor?

It's not technically speaking, a vapour. But it is a volatile liquid (It readily evaporates). Boiling point is to do with the interactions between the molecules in a liquid. The stronger the interaction, the more energy is required to pull them apart. So the energy (heat) supplied at it's boiling boiling point is sufficient to break the interactions in ethanol. The boiling point of ethanol is 78.1 °C.
