Will a solution of 15 percent alcohol freeze?

It depends on the temperature. At standard freezer temperatures, a solution of 15 percent alcohol is likely to freeze. Alcohol has a lower freezing point than water, so the exact temperature at which it freezes will depend on the specific type of alcohol used.


Why 70 percent alcohol is used for sterilization not 100 percent?

First of all, because technological limits mean that we can only get alcohol at a purity of about 90%. 90% alcohol is also far more expensive than 70%, so it is more cost effective to use 70%. Ignoring all of that, the main reason is that 70% alcohol works just fine and sterilizes object very well.70%alcohol is the efficient concentration to denature the protein.


Why 70 percent alcohol is most active?

70 percent alcohol, also known as isopropyl alcohol, is most effective for disinfection because it has a balance of water and alcohol content. This concentration allows the alcohol to penetrate the cell wall of microorganisms more effectively, denaturing their proteins and disrupting their cellular functions. Higher concentrations of alcohol may evaporate too quickly, while lower concentrations may not be as effective at killing bacteria and viruses.


The concentration of alcohol and water solution is 25 percent alcohol by volume what is volume of alcohol and 200 lM of solution?

If the concentration of alcohol and water solution is 25 percent alcohol by volume, the volume of alcohol in a 200 solution is 50.


What organ oxidizes 90 percent alcohol?

The liver is the primary organ responsible for oxidizing 90 percent of the alcohol consumed. It converts alcohol into acetaldehyde and then into acetate through a process involving enzymes like alcohol dehydrogenase and aldehyde dehydrogenase.

Why is 70 percent isopropyl alcohol more expansive than 40 percent isopropyl alcohol?

It is difficult and expensive to refine anything to 100% purity. Best to use 70% as it is just as effective and cost a whole lot less.
