Does non polar rubbing alcohol have surface tension?

I'm not sure what "non polar rubbing alcohol" is supposed to be. At least one of the words in that phrase is wrong: either it's polar or it's not an alcohol. But it turns out not to matter in this particular case, because all liquids have surface tension.


How will density determined the order that liquids will stack when placed in the same containers water?

If the liquids are immiscible (cannot be mixed - such as cooking oil and water), they will separate with the most dense at the bottom and the least dense at the top. If they are miscible, such as alcohol and water, they might still briefly separate by density, but will soon become a homologous solution with no distinguisable layers.

What chemicals are in drinking alcohol?

All drinking alcohols--spirits, wines or beers--contain a mixture of water and ethanol, which is the chemical name for what is considered drinking alcohol. Ethanol is the chemical that is reported as the percentage of alcohol by volume or the proof. All drinking alcohols also contain different concentrations of cogeners, or coproducts of the fermentation process that is used to create the ethanol. These include various compounds produced by the yeast as waste and left over oils and flavors from the fruit and grains used. Yeast generally produces large amounts of CO2, which account for the bubbles found in some wines and beers. It also produces methanol and acetone, which gives harsh flavors to some spirits if they are not properly removed.

What is the difference between ethyl and isopropyl alcohol?

ethanol has the formula C2H5OH and is suitable for consumption by humans,isopropyl alcohol(C3H8O) is an isomer of propanol with the OH alcohol functional group on the second carbon as opposed to at the end of the chain as normal,whats marketed as isopropyl alcohol(rubbing alcohol) in America actually contains no isopropyl alcohol as far as i know,just denatured ethanol.isopropyl aclohol is a skin irritant and is metabolised to acetone in the body,it is about twice as toxic as ethanol


Is ethyl alchohol a pure substance or mixture?

It is a pure substance.Added:Chemically speaking alcohol is meant to be ethanol, which is a pure compound with formula CH3CH2OH, it definitely is not a mixture, except when 'dissolved' in water (most stable solution: 4% water + 96% ethanol. (This is what you get when buying a bottle pure ethanol)

What chemicals are made to make alcohol?

Most often the active ingredient found in alcohol is Ethyl Alcohol, chemical formula is C2H5OH. This is the main ingredient and causes the CNS effects attributable to Alcohol. And there are varying contents of sugar, which depends on what fermenting process is used to make the alcohol. And other additives are used, which are as diverse as is the human-kind


Can hand sanitizers kill yeast present on the hands?

No it doesn't,it kills 99.9% of germs,bt NOT mold.... --------------------------------------------------------------------- It actually depends on the type of hand sanitizer you use.

Mold is a type of Fungi, and Alcohol's properties tend to "kill" everything. -better to use rubbing alcohol
