no ethanol is a depressant on the central nervous system,thats why drunk people sometimes have problems co-ordinating there bodies to walk,talk etc
Ethanol is a CNS depressant. It is only thought to be stimulating when individuals experience its disinhibiting properties and confuse this with CNS stimulation (which does not occur with ethanol).
When you put frozen ethanol into liquid ethanol, the frozen ethanol will begin to melt and mix with the liquid ethanol. Both states of ethanol will reach an equilibrium temperature, and the frozen ethanol will ultimately dissolve into the liquid ethanol to form a homogeneous solution.
Yes, distilled ethanol is similar to pure ethanol. Distilled ethanol is produced using distillation to purify the ethanol, resulting in a high level of purity. Pure ethanol refers to ethanol that is free from impurities, and distilled ethanol typically meets this criteria.
The chemical formula of ethanol is C2H5OH.
Ethanol is the type of alcohol found in alcoholic beverages. It is considered a psychoactive substance because of its ability to alter mood and behavior when consumed. It can have both depressant and stimulant effects on the central nervous system, leading to changes in mood and behavior.
narcotic
Ethanol is an euphoric compound.
mood altering drug
Alcohol, particularly ethanol, is a depressant. Caffeine is a stimulant and is an alkaloid.
Ethanol is a CNS depressant. It is only thought to be stimulating when individuals experience its disinhibiting properties and confuse this with CNS stimulation (which does not occur with ethanol).
Depressant. Ethanol depresses the central nervous system (CNS) via the reticular activating systems by interfering with ion transport at the cell membrane and interacting with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA ) receptors.
It's both a stimulant and a hallucinogen.
Stimulant
It is a stimulant.
what stimulant do chocolate and coffee have in common?
This is a question that turns out to be surprising complex: is alcohol a depressant a stimulant or what? And the answer is.......yes. The best answer (insert 30 minute discussion on neurochemistry) is that when blood alcohol level is rising (when the party starts) then alcohol acts as a stimulant. When BAL is falling (at closing time), then alcohol acts as a depressant. In all cases, alcohol impairs the critical decision making function of the brain, which explains a lot.
yes crack is a stimulant
