Topic: Ethanol or ethyl alcohol

	Ethanol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol or grain alcohol, is a flammable, tasteless, colorless, mildly toxic chemical compound with a distinctive odor, and is the alcohol found in alcoholic beverages.
		Ethyl nitrite, prepared from the reaction of ethanol with sodium nitrite and sulfuric acid, was formerly a widely-used diuretic.
		The ethanol content of a beverage is usually measured in terms of the volume fraction of ethanol in the beverage, expressed either as a percentage or in alcoholic proof units.

	HighBeam Encyclopedia - ethanol
		Ethanol forms a constant-boiling mixture, or azeotrope, with water that contains 95% ethanol and 5% water and that boils at 78.15°C; since the boiling point of this binary azeotrope is below that of pure ethanol, absolute ethanol cannot be obtained by simple distillation.
		Ethanol is used extensively as a solvent in the manufacture of varnishes and perfumes; as a preservative for biological specimens; in the preparation of essences and flavorings; in many medicines and drugs; as a disinfectant and in tinctures (e.g., tincture of iodine); and as a fuel and gasoline additive (see gasohol).
		Denatured, or industrial, alcohol is ethanol to which poisonous or nauseating substances have been added to prevent its use as a beverage; a beverage tax is not charged on such alcohol, so its cost is quite low.

	MMD Archives: Ethanol (Ethyl Alcohol) & Shellac
		This ratio is chosen because ethanol and water form a binary azeotrope at this ratio with a boiling point of 78.15 degrees C. [Celsius].
		Ethanol is seldom produced commercially (except for booze) by distillation.
		Thus most commercial ethanol is intentionally diluted with water to the 95:5 concentration because it represents the composition with the lowest boiling point and hence the most stable composition for use in a normal atmospheric environment.

	Chemical of the Week -- Ethanol
		Ethanol, CH3CH2OH, is an alcohol, a group of chemical compounds whose molecules contain a hydroxyl group, –OH, bonded to a carbon atom.
		The ethanol disposal rate in a 150-pound human is about 0.5 ounce of ethanol per hour, which corresponds to 12 ounces of beer, 4 ounces of wine, or 1 ounce of hard liquor.
		Alcohol levels in the brain are difficult to measure, and so blood alcohol levels are used to assess degree of intoxication.

	Alcohol Chemistry and You
		Ethanol is a colorless, mobile liquid with a characteristic odor.
		But each ethanol molecule is a microscopically small, discrete particle consisting of two carbon atoms, two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom, bound to each other in a certain configuration.

	General Introduction to Alcohols
		Denatured alcohol is Ethanol which has been made unsuitable for consumption by addition of toxic solvents to the pure alcohol.
		Pure Alcohol is still considered "pure" regardless of the "cut" of water (i.e., pure, 200 proof Ethanol is referred to as pure alcohol, while Vodka is also referred to as pure alcohol, even though it is only 80 proof).
		Completely Denatured Alcohol may not be used in the manufacture of preparations or products for internal human use or consumption where any of the alcohol or the denaturants used in that alcohol remain in the finished product.

		An alcohol is generally classified by the number of hydroxyl groups in its molecule.
		The monohydric alcohols are further classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary according to the number of carbon atoms bonded to the carbon atom to which the hydroxyl group is bonded.
		Alcohols are generally less volatile, have higher melting points, and are more soluble in water than the corresponding hydrocarbons (in which the -OH group is replaced with hydrogen).
