What is the chemical formula of wood?
Wood is not composed of a bunch of identical molecules, so it has no chemical formula. It turns out that wood contains lignite, an organic polymer which is a name applied to a group of complex organic chemicals. Wood also contains cellulose, which is a polysaccharides with (C6H10O5)n as its formula.Wikipedia has more information on wood, and a link is provided. We also gave you links to the posts on lignite and cellulose, too. Hey, this is WikiAnswers. We've got your back.Aye that's correct
Difference between methanol and ethanol?
Methanol is CH3OH, ethanol is CH3CH2OH. Both are alcohols, ethanol has one carbon more (or a CH2 group more) and is less polar than methanol. Also ethanol has higher boiling point than methanol.
Is methanol electrolyte?
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.

What elements are in wood alchohol?
"Wood alcohol" is more systematically named methanol, has the molecular formula CH4O, and contains the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.
What other elements are in wood alcohol compound?
Wood alcohol, also known as methanol, is composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms. Its chemical formula is CH3OH.
How many atoms of oxygen does wood alcohol?
One oxygen atom is in each alcohol molecule. This is true of methyl (wood) alcohol, ethyl, propyl or isopropyl alcohol and all of the alcohols based on a simple hydrocarbon chain (acyclic alcohols).
How can wood alcohol be synthesized?
Wood alcohol is methanol and its chemical formula is CH3OH (often abbreviated MeOH). It is also known as methyl alcohol, wood naphtha or wood spirits. It is called wood alcohol because it was once a byproduct of distillation of wood. It is now produced from carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, and hydrogen directly in a catalytic industrial process.
What is the atomic number of wood alchol?
Wood alcohol is not an element, so it doesn't have an atomic number. It does have a chemical formula, which is CH4O.
What is the chemical name for wood alcohol?
'Alcohol' , chemically, is a collective name for a list of substances with the '-OH' functional group. The following are some alcohols.;- Methanol, Ethanol, Propanol Butanol Pentanol Hexanol et. seq. There are many more alcohols. I suspect that you are thinking of the 'alcohol' that is in beers, wines and spirits.. The chemical formula for ethanol is 'CH3CH2OH'. That alcohol is ethanol, archaically, 'ethyl alcohol'. The other alcohols listed above cannot be consumed by humans.
What is the chemical name of this chemical formula of CH3OH?
This is the formula for Methanol, also known as wood alcohol. (Most of the Methanol on the market is actually sourced from petroleum, not wood, as it's cheaper and quicker to get it that way.)
What other compounds are in wood alcohol?
Pure wood alcohol is methanol, but as all alcohols are hygroscopic it cannot exist long in that state but will always be mixed with some water.Wood alcohol sold in a store may contain additives or contaminants also.
What elements form wood alcohol?
Alcohol is a compound of Hydrogen, Oxygen and Carbon. in the case of wood alcohol it has methylated spirits it is derived from wood or wood products such as cellulose. Wood Alcohol, of football song fame, is NOT intended for human consumption, and one glass could cause total blindness in some cases, talk of blind drunk It is no laughing matter, Ok for paints, not people,... as we too become Denatured. Leave it alone!
