Ether is a volatile liquid that is colorless and highly flammable. It has a sweet smell and is commonly used as a solvent and anesthetic.
Ether is not a physical object or substance, so it does not have a color. It is a hypothetical medium through which electromagnetic waves are thought to propagate.
When ether is exposed to air for some time, it can form explosive peroxides. These peroxides are highly sensitive and can detonate with shock, heat, or friction. It is important to properly store and handle ether to prevent the formation of these explosive substances.
Petroleum ether is a nonpolar solvent, while vegetable oil is a nonpolar substance. Since like dissolves like, petroleum ether should be able to dissolve in vegetable oil to some extent.
The modern spelling is 'ether'. The classical spelling from antiquity is 'aether'. A substance such as ethyl ethyl ether is CH3CH2 - O - CH2CH3
The calorific value of diethyl ether is approximately 35.5 MJ/kg. This means that when burned, diethyl ether releases around 35.5 megajoules of energy per kilogram of the substance. It is commonly used as a fuel source in some racing cars and airplanes due to its high energy content.
Neither, its a pure substance
No. Evaporation of ether or any other substance is a physical change as the identity of the substance remains the same.
ether
Ether is indeed a pure substance rather than a mixture. The boiling point of ether is 94.28 degrees Fahrenheit or 34.6 degrees Celsius.
Polar. the C-O bond are polar

The "ether" is a hypothetical substance, postulated in the past to explain the propagation of electromagnetic waves such as light. The word is hardly used nowadays. Empty space takes over this role, but it doesn't have all the properties that were expected of the ether in the past.

Ether is a compound which is created by the condensation of alcohols. It was first discovered in 1275, by Raymundus Lullis, and was put into use as a medical anesthetic in 1842 by Crawford Williamson Long. Aether (pronounced like ether) is a non-existing substance, which early physicists believed filled the universe.
That may be an old term for an electromagnetic wave. The "ether" is the hypothetical substance through which electromagnetic waves travel; according to modern theory, the "ether" doesn't exist, at least, not with all the properties originally proposed. Empty space itself can be said to be the "ether", but the term is considered obsolete.
