Answer 100% isopropyl alcohol is a pure substance and not a mixture. A mixture consists of more than one type of chemical compound mixed with another either uniformly or not uniformly.

Over the counter isopropyl alcohol is usually 70% or 90% Isopropyl with this rest made up of water. Since the alcohol and water mix together uniformly and the particles are too small to scatter light, isopropyl alcohol and water is classified as a homogeneous mixture. More specifically you would call this homogeneous mixture of alcohol and water a solution. Other homogeneous mixtures include salt water, pepsi, apple juice and a martini (without the olive).

Beverage alcohol on its own (ethanol) is not a mixture at all but a pure substance. Alcoholic Beverages are homogeneous mixtures.

Homogeneours because the particles are in uniform composition and are well mixed.

Rubbing alcohol is also known as isopropanol or isopropyl alcohol. It is a compound, not a mixture, unless it is added to water.
