Yes, if you drown them with it. It is toxic as well, but they're not likely to voluntarily drink enough of it for that to be much of a factor.

Is methyl octane alcohol alkane or alkenes?

Alcohol is an Oxygen atom double-bonded to a carbonyl group. As such, there is no such thing as 'Methyl Octane Alcohol'. However, there is Methyl Alcohol and Octyl Alcohol. Please edit your question. Also: If you are asking if Methyl Alcohol is miscible (dissoluble) in octane, it is. Alkanes are hydrocarbons only, so both octane and the methyl group in methanol (methyl alcohol) are alkanes.


Why is CH3OH methyl alcohol?

CH3OH is called methyl alcohol because it is a type of alcohol compound where the hydroxyl group (-OH) is attached to a carbon atom (methyl group -CH3) in the molecule. This naming convention is based on the IUPAC system for naming organic compounds.


Which shows maximum hydrogen bonding with wate.is it methyl alcohol or ethyl alcohol?

Ethyl alcohol shows maximum hydrogen bonding with water because it has an additional -CH2 group compared to methyl alcohol, providing more sites for hydrogen bonding with water molecules.


What is the difference between ethyl and methyl alcohol?

Methanol, also known as methyl alcohol, is madeof molecules containing one methyl group, with a chemical structure of CH3-OH. Methanol is highly toxic if inhaled, drunk, or absorbed through the skin and can cause blindness. Ethyl alcohol is the same as ethanol or grain alcohol. I has two methyl groups and looks like CH3-CH3-OH. This is the type of alcohol found in the alcoholic beverages people consume. Both compounds are organic and are good solvents and fixatives.

Can evry kind of alcohol kill you?

There are dozens of different kinds of alcohol. It is probably safe to assume that enough of any of them would kill you, since too much of just about anything can be fatal, including water. The three most common kinds, ethyl alcohol (beverage alcohol), isopropyl alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and methyl alcohol ("wood" alcohol) will definitely kill you in sufficient quantity. In fact, the last two will do it even quicker than beverage alcohol, and with methyl you get to go blind, too.
