Methyl alcohol by itself is not an electrolyte. By definition, an electrolyte is something containing free ions. If you took methyl alcohol and dissolved a salt in it, the resulting solution would indeed by an electrolyte solution. However, methyl alcohol by itself is not an electrolyte.

∙ 9y agoNo, methanol is a a chemical with the formula CH3OH (often abbreviated MeOH). It is also called "wood alcohol" because it was once produced chiefly as a byproduct of the destructive distillation of wood. It is now produced in a catalytic industrial process directly from carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen.

Is Methanol a nonelectrolyte?
Methanol is a nonelectrolyte because it is so weak it is not considered to be an electrolyte. Methanol is too weak to pass on electrons.
Does methanol conduct electricity?
No, methanol does not conduct electricity. It does not conduct electricity because it is a non-electrolyte molecule. Sugar also is non-electrolyte, therefore it also does not conduct electricity.
What compounds are found in methanol?
Methanol is an alcohol and consists of carbon,hydrogen and oxygen its formula is CH3OH
Is methanol a solid?
No, at room temperature methanol is a liquid.
Is ammonium sulphate a strong electrolyte weak electrolyte or non-electrolyte?
It is a strong electrolyte
Why is methanol strong electrolyte?
Methanol is not an electrolyte. It is a molecule compound and only ionizes to a negligible degree in water.
Is mathanol a electrolyte?
No, methanol can not form ions so it is non electrolyte.
Is Methanol a nonelectrolyte?
Methanol is a nonelectrolyte because it is so weak it is not considered to be an electrolyte. Methanol is too weak to pass on electrons.
Does methanol conduct electricity?
No, methanol does not conduct electricity. It does not conduct electricity because it is a non-electrolyte molecule. Sugar also is non-electrolyte, therefore it also does not conduct electricity.
