Is methyl hydrate the same as acetone?

Yes, methyl hydrate is another name for methanol, while acetone is a different chemical compound. Methanol is a type of alcohol with the chemical formula CH3OH, while acetone has the chemical formula (CH3)2CO and is a type of ketone.


What is the boling point of methyl alcohol?

The boiling point of methyl alcohol (methanol) is 64.7oC.


What are the differences between methyl ethyl and isopropyl alcohol in terms of their chemical properties and applications?

Methyl, ethyl, and isopropyl alcohols differ in their chemical structures and properties. Methyl alcohol has one carbon atom, ethyl alcohol has two, and isopropyl alcohol has three. Isopropyl alcohol is commonly used as a disinfectant and solvent, while ethyl alcohol is found in alcoholic beverages and as a solvent. Methyl alcohol is highly toxic and is used in industrial processes.


Why is benzophenone soluble in methyl alcohol while biphenyl is not?

Yes it is definitely soluble in methyl alcohol through experimental observation but to the extent of polarity is what i am trying to figure out. There should be a difference in solubility of benzophenone in methyl alcohol and in hexane. It is def. partially soluble in hexane and im guessing it is suppose to be completely soluble in methyl alcohol. I must have just messed up in the lab


Does Methyl hydrate work like gas line antifreeze or is is the same product?

Methyl hydrate is commonly known as methyl alcohol, methanol, or wood alcohol. Its molecular formula is CH3OH. .for more information: http:/en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_hydrate .. Methyl hydrate or methanol is commonly used as a gas line antifreeze. Since methanol and water are completely miscible that is they will dissolve in each other completely, methanol lowers the freezing point of any water in the bottom of the engine fuel system. .. Also since methanol will dissolve in gasoline fuel, it keeps any water in the fuel in a dissolved state. In other words you won't have a ice blockage in your fule line, tank bottom, or fuel filter. .. Since many gasolines contain ethanol, they already have antifreeze protection. .. Methanol has been used as a racing fuel and as a gasoline fuel additive. It has the property of reducing engine knocking (raising the octane level).

Is methyl hydrate the same a denatured alcohol?

No, methyl hydrate and denatured alcohol are not the same. Methyl hydrate, also known as methanol or wood alcohol, is a specific type of alcohol used primarily as a solvent or antifreeze. Denatured alcohol, on the other hand, is ethanol that has been treated with additives to make it unfit for human consumption, often used as a solvent or fuel. While both are types of alcohol, their compositions and uses differ significantly.

Is ethanol also known as methyl alcohol?

Methanol is known as methyl alcohol. Methanol's scientific name is where the "alcohol" variant name has come from. Essentially, alcohol and methanol is the same thing, however there are different types of alcohol.


How does gas line freeze up occor?

Is methyl octane alcohol alkane or alkenes?

Alcohol is an Oxygen atom double-bonded to a carbonyl group. As such, there is no such thing as 'Methyl Octane Alcohol'. However, there is Methyl Alcohol and Octyl Alcohol. Please edit your question. Also: If you are asking if Methyl Alcohol is miscible (dissoluble) in octane, it is. Alkanes are hydrocarbons only, so both octane and the methyl group in methanol (methyl alcohol) are alkanes.


Is methyl alcohol electrolyte?

Methyl alcohol by itself is not an electrolyte. By definition, an electrolyte is something containing free ions. If you took methyl alcohol and dissolved a salt in it, the resulting solution would indeed by an electrolyte solution. However, methyl alcohol by itself is not an electrolyte.


What is the boling point of methyl alcohol?

Why is CH3OH methyl alcohol?

CH3OH is called methyl alcohol because it is a type of alcohol compound where the hydroxyl group (-OH) is attached to a carbon atom (methyl group -CH3) in the molecule. This naming convention is based on the IUPAC system for naming organic compounds.


Is methanol an alcohol?

It is considered as methyl alcohol and wood alcohol


What is the difference between ethyl and methyl alcohol?

Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, is madeof molecules containing one methyl group, with a chemical structure of CH3-OH. Methanol is highly toxic if inhaled, drunk, or absorbed through the skin and can cause blindness. Ethyl alcohol is the same as ethanol or grain alcohol. I has two methyl groups and looks like CH3-CH3-OH. This is the type of alcohol found in the alcoholic beverages people consume. Both compounds are organic and are good solvents and fixatives.
