Because of the sum of polarities: there are a manifold of equally charged ions in an ethanol molecule compared to water that repel each other.
When CH3CH2OH and H2O are mixed together to form a homogenous solution, CH3CH2OH forms additional hydrogen bonding with water molecules.
Water (H2O) has stronger intermolecular forces than ammonia (NH3) due to hydrogen bonding in water molecules. Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force that is stronger than the dipole-dipole interactions present in ammonia molecules.
When acetic acid (CH3COOH) reacts with ethanol (CH3CH2OH), they undergo esterification to produce ethyl acetate (CH3COOCH2CH3) and water (H2O). This reaction is catalyzed by an acid, usually sulfuric acid. Ethyl acetate is a sweet-smelling ester commonly used as a solvent.
The half equation for the conversion of ethanol to ethanoic acid involves the oxidation of ethanol to form ethanal (acetaldehyde), followed by the further oxidation of ethanal to ethanoic acid. The half equation for the oxidation of ethanol to ethanal is: CH3CH2OH → CH3CHO + 2H+ + 2e-. The half equation for the oxidation of ethanal to ethanoic acid is: CH3CHO + H2O → CH3COOH + 2H+ + 2e-.
This is an oxidation reaction (burning of ethanol).
H2O has a stronger bond then CaO because H2O is a covalent compound (made up of two nonmetals), whereas CaO is an ionic compound (made up of both a metal and nonmetal), and covalent bonds are stronger then ionic bonds.
When CH3CH2OH and H2O are mixed together to form a homogenous solution, CH3CH2OH forms additional hydrogen bonding with water molecules.
The double bond in carbon dioxide (CO2) is stronger than the single bond in water (H2O). Carbon dioxide features a carbon-oxygen double bond, which involves sharing four electrons, resulting in a stronger bond due to increased electron sharing. In contrast, the single bonds in water involve only two electrons being shared (one for each hydrogen-oxygen bond), making them inherently weaker than the double bonds in CO2.
CH3CH2OOCCH3 + H2O ===> CH3CH2OH + CH3COOH
Water (H2O) has stronger intermolecular forces than ammonia (NH3) due to hydrogen bonding in water molecules. Hydrogen bonding is a type of intermolecular force that is stronger than the dipole-dipole interactions present in ammonia molecules.
The ion-ion bond in CaSO4 is stronger than in NaCl because of the higher charges on the cation and anion. Be careful in making this argument. The ion-dipole forces of Ca2+ -H2O and SO42- - H2O might actually be stronger than that of Na+ -H2O and Cl- -H2O due to the high charges on Ca2+ and SO42- . However the strengths of the ions-dipole interactions do not match (or exceed) the strength of the Ca2+ -SO42- ionic bond.

H2 molecule is the least polar. Between H2O and H2S, the most polar will be H2O as oxygen is more electronegative than sulphur.
This is an oxidation reaction (burning of ethanol).
2 CH3CH2OH → CH3CH2OCH2CH3 + H2O (on 120'C)
It is ethanol, normal alcohol, it burns with oxygen from air.The balanced reaction equation is:CH3CH2OH + 3 O2 --> 2 CO2 + 3 H2O
