hmm well the label on everclear does say that its 95% volume,so technically i guess it would be a suitable substitute for 95% ethanol if you were stuck,id still recommend buying the ethanol youd use in a lab unless its for a burner
One simple way is to measure the specific gravity of the ethanol using a hydrometer. Another method is to use a simple alcoholmeter to measure the alcohol content. You can also use a refractometer to measure the refractive index of the ethanol, which can indicate its purity.
To separate ethanol and sugar, you can use a process called distillation. Ethanol has a lower boiling point than sugar, so by heating the mixture, the ethanol will vaporize first and can be collected as a separate component. This allows you to separate the ethanol from the sugar in the mixture.
Ethanol was first discovered by alchemists in the Middle Ages through the process of fermentation. However, its use as a recreational beverage dates back to ancient civilizations such as the Babylonians and Egyptians.
95% ethanol is commonly used in laboratories because it is an effective solvent for a wide range of chemicals and biological substances. It also has antimicrobial properties, making it useful for disinfecting surfaces and equipment. Additionally, 95% ethanol is less prone to evaporation compared to absolute ethanol, providing a more stable solution for various applications.
To prepare 95% ethanol from absolute ethanol, you would need to dilute the absolute ethanol with a calculated amount of distilled water. Since absolute ethanol is 100% pure, you can use the formula C1V1 = C2V2, where C1 is the initial concentration (100%), V1 is the volume of absolute ethanol, C2 is the desired concentration (95%), and V2 is the final volume of the diluted solution. By rearranging the formula and solving for V1, you can determine the volume of absolute ethanol needed to achieve a 95% ethanol solution when mixed with water.
Ethanol is safe to use with rubber gaskets, methanol isn't. Ethanol is mixed with the gasoline you purchase from your local gas station. I'd refrain from using a 100% mixture, though. Interestingly, 100% ethanol is available on the liquor store shelf- Everclear. I'd save it for tasty drinks though, as it would be too expensive to fill your car with, and your engine wouldn't run very well.
No, you should not use ethanol instead of water when conducting the iodoform test. The test relies on the reaction of iodine with an alcohol in the presence of a base, typically sodium hydroxide, to form iodoform. Water is usually used in the test to help facilitate the reaction. Substituting ethanol for water can affect the outcome of the test.
We could use leather instead.
diesel Ethanol Natural Gas Propane Battery power
You could not use lightning instead of batteries.
Nothing over E15 (15% ethanol) and it should be fine. It could run on E85 (85% ethanol) in an emergency, but it may damage fuel system components.
Not a good idea to do this. Everclear is 180 to 190 proof, or 90 to 95% pure alcohol. It is EXTREMELY flamable. It can blow up and burn you or kill you. I cannot conceive of a use for 'warmed everclear'. It is something to add alcohol to a mixed drink or punch. Be careful.
Theoretically yes because ethanol can be used as a fuel but practically maybe difficult because you will need a lot of it to get enough energy.
to save the ethanol
You probably could but if it's not specifically built to run on 10% ethanol you're more likely to do a lot of engine damage which can cost you major $$ in the future.
i believe you could use wood when you dont have styrofoam
You could use worldly... or refined...
