Alcohol is this process affected by temperature?

Yes, temperature affect the concentration of alcohol. Alcohol is made up of ethanol, high temperature oxidised ethanol to ethanoic acid so the concentration of alcohol decrease.


Liquid alcohol will change to vapor when its temperature reaches the what?

Liquid alcohol will change to vapor when its temperature reaches its boiling temperature. When alcohol reaches its boiling temperature, each molecule of alcohol has enough energy to separate from each other, so each molecule can move freely. The boiling point of liquid alcohol is 351K or 78C


Does temperature affect the weight of alcohol?

yes, it do affect the alcohol


The effect of alcohol in the body?

lowers the temperature lowers the temperature


Why is temperature of boiling water cannot be measured using an alcohol thermometer?

Because the alcohol boils at a lower temperature than water.


Why does alcohol in a thermometer rise?

Alcohol in a thermometer rises whenever the temperature of its surrounding increases. As the temperature increases, the heat causes the alcohol to expand ever so slightly, which shows up as an increase of height of the alcohol in the tube of the thermometer.


What temperature does iodine dissolve in alcohol?

Iodine is dissolved in ethanol at any temperature.


Does the temperature of alcohol increase when it is heated?

Of course.


Why does alcohol temp is low?

Actually alcohol at room temperature would be of the same temperature than water at room temperature. The difference between the two is that alcohol needs less heat to evaporate. If you wet either hand in alcohol and water, the one with alcohol will feel colder because it's removing more heat from you and faster. That's basically what cold is, the absence of heat.


Does alcohol change into gas?

Yes, alcohol readily changes to a gas (vapour) at room temperature.


How Eliminate alcohol in urine test?

heat it. Alcohol boils at a lower temperature than water


Do alcohol at ordinary temperature has liquid or gaseous state?

Ethanol (the kind of alcohol you get in drinks) is liquid at room temperature. It boils at around 78'C, so will become a vapour at this point.
