Yes, isopropyl alcohol has a distinct, strong smell that is often described as sharp and antiseptic. Many people find the odor to be quite potent, and it can be reminiscent of rubbing alcohol. The scent is more noticeable in higher concentrations, such as 70% or 91% solutions. While some may find it unpleasant, others may associate it with cleanliness and disinfection.

Is the smell of alcohol a physical change?

The smell of alcohol is not a physical change; rather, it is the result of the volatile compounds in alcohol evaporating into the air. When alcohol evaporates, it changes from a liquid to a gas, which can be detected by our sense of smell. This process is a physical change, as it involves a change in state without altering the chemical composition of the alcohol itself.
