A thin layer of water might repel a drop of alcohol, however rubbing alcohol is miscible in water in larger quantities. Isopropyl alcohol, of the form C3H7OH, is what we know as rubbing alcohol. The repulsion could be because of the propyl group, however the hydroxyl group should form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with water.
As soon as you add the drop of rubbing alcohol the colored water will quickly move away from the rubbing alcohol,but will leave a really thin layer of colored water where you added the drop of rubbing alcohol
An object will float in water if its density is less than that of water. Rubbing alcohol has a lower density than water, so an object that sinks in rubbing alcohol likely has a higher density than the rubbing alcohol. This difference in density causes the object to sink in rubbing alcohol but float in water.
No, acetone is not the same as rubbing alcohol. Acetone is a type of solvent, while rubbing alcohol is a mixture of isopropyl alcohol and water used as a disinfectant.
To make rubbing alcohol from isopropyl alcohol, you can mix it with water in a specific ratio. Typically, rubbing alcohol is made by combining 70 isopropyl alcohol with 30 water. This mixture creates a solution that is effective for disinfecting surfaces and skin.
Yes, rubbing alcohol is a type of isopropyl alcohol. Isopropyl alcohol is a specific chemical compound, while rubbing alcohol is a general term for a solution containing isopropyl alcohol and water.

Water contains no alcohol or oils, as rubbing alcohol does.
No, rubbing alcohol does not make water disappear when they mix. Instead, rubbing alcohol and water form a uniform solution where the molecules of both substances are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Rubbing alcohol contain water, methanol or isopropyl alcohol, a dye.

Sort of. First off rubbing alcohol doesn't have to be all alcohol, it can be some water in it too, and water can promote rust. Next thing rubbing alcohol can remove a possibly protective layer of grease, which can make metal rust faster.
Objects will float better in rubbing alcohol than in water because rubbing alcohol has a lower density than water. This means that objects will displace less liquid in rubbing alcohol, making it easier for them to float.
Rubbing alcohol, because water takes out all of the coolness of an ice cube whistle rubbing alcohol keeps it in.
It is a mixture of denatured alcohol, water and agents added to make the alcohol unpalatable to drink and sometimes colorants. There are two common types of rubbing alcohol, Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol and Ethyl Alcohol Rubbing Alcohol.

rubbing alcohol has higher specific heat
Yes. In fact, rubbing alcohol is already mixed half-and-half with water.
