Basically only ethyl alcohol (ethanol) is safe to drink. Even then over consumption can cause poisoning.Other alcohols such as methanol, ethylene glycol, propylene glycol, and isopropanol (isopropyl alcohol) are all toxic. Even some such as absolute ethyl alcohol is toxic as its distillation requires the addition of benzene to the alcohol water mixture before distillation.. Denatured alcohol may also be mainly ethanol but contain materials to make it undrinkable.
Some nom-commercial alcohols (moonshine or other names) may be spiked with toxic alcohols to increase its "punch"
Chemically (and generally) speaking, odd carbon number alcohols are more toxic that even carbon alcohols but then then only ethanol has a neutral or pleasant taste.
Drinkable alcohol is ethanol.
Yes, some thermometers contain non-drinkable alcohol.
Alcohol is a very good disinfectant. This type of alcohol is not drinkable. Are you sure this bottles have alcohol in them?
No! Rubbing alcohol is not meant for drinking. There are many types of alcohol used for cleaning wounds and sterilization that are poisonous to drink.
Only if you want to spend the rest of the week in the hospital. The "denatured" part of the name means "made poisonous". Nasty stuff. It only exists because drinkable alcohol is subject to high liquor taxes, and for industrial purposes, the tax makes it prohibitively expensive. Poisoning it makes it non-drinkable, and non-taxable.
Our planet, the Earth is the only planet with drinkable water. It is the only planet in our Solar System with life and oxygen. Without the oxygen, there will be no life and water on Earth.
If you're talking about the brand of spirits Absolut, then yes (please enjoy responsibly). Pure alcohol (100% ABV), not so much.
only on tuesdays
Yes, I belive all beverages are drinkable. But I am only 10 years old so that is probably not true.
Yes, ethyl alcohol and isopropyl alcohol are drinkable.
No. Rubbing alcohol is a type of alcohol called Isopropyl Alcohol (or isopropynol). Drinking alcohol is ethyl alcohol (or ethynol). They are different at a molecular level, which means you would have to add and remove atoms to change them. You are about as likely to do this as to turn your charcoal for your BBQ into diamonds at home.
earth is the only KNOWN planet with liquid H2O
