Water has a higher specific heat capacity compared to pure or drinking alcohol. This means that water can hold more heat energy per unit mass. Therefore, water can absorb and retain more heat energy compared to alcohol.
Alcohol would require more heat energy to reach its boiling point of 70 degrees Celsius compared to water which needs to reach 100 degrees Celsius. Therefore, alcohol would require more heat energy to boil.
The specific heat of alcohol is around 2.44 J/gC, which is lower than water but higher than most other substances. This means that alcohol requires less energy to change its temperature compared to water, but more than many other materials.
The only way to eliminate alcohol from a urine test is to wait for your body to metabolize and eliminate it naturally. This process typically takes several hours, depending on the amount of alcohol consumed. Drinking water or other fluids will not speed up this process.
Rubbing alcohol can be heated by placing it in a heat-resistant container and applying heat using a hot plate or a water bath. It is important to heat rubbing alcohol in a well-ventilated area and away from any open flames as it is flammable.
When something burns it gives off heat. Therefore, it is exothermic.
