What can you drink besides alcohol to get drunk?
"Drunk" specifically refers to alcohol (and specifically ethanol... other alcohols not only won't get you drunk, most of them are poisonous). So, properly speaking, there is no answer to your question.
Is a diamond soluble in alcohols?
No, diamonds are not soluble in alcohols. Diamonds are very resistant to chemical reactions and do not dissolve in most solvents, including alcohols.
The alcohols are organic equivalents of inorganic?
Alcohols can be considered organic equivalents of inorganic water. Alcohols can form hydrogen bonds with water and low weight alcohols are miscible in water.
What is the density of all alcohols together?
There are too many different alcohols for any question dealing with "all" alcohols to be answered. Also, the answer will depend on the relative quantities of the alcohols in the mixture.
Are alcohols aromatic or aliphatic?
Alcohols can be either aromatic or aliphatic. Aromatic alcohols contain a benzene ring in their structure, while aliphatic alcohols do not have a benzene ring and are typically straight-chain or branched-chain molecules.
Why is alcohol considered acid forming?
Alcohols has a polar -O-H bond. Alcohols release hydrogen ions forming -O-. So alcohols are acidic.
What are monohydric alcohols?
Monohydric alcohols are alcohols that contain only one hydroxyl (-OH) group per molecule. They are commonly used in various industrial applications, as solvents, fuels, and in the production of chemicals and pharmaceuticals. Ethanol and methanol are common examples of monohydric alcohols.
Which is a polar functional group found in alcohols?
The functional group in alcohols is the hydroxyl -OH.
What hydrocarbons are acids and alcohols?
None - hydrocarbons are chemically different than acids and alcohols
Why aromatic alcohols are more acidic than aliphatic alcohols?
aromatic alcohols undergo resonance which stabilizes the conjugate base, in aliphatic alcohols +I effect of alkyl group increase the -ve charge in the conjugate base thus make it unstable
Do alcohols contain nitrogen?
No, alcohols do not contain nitrogen. Alcohols are organic compounds that contain a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group attached to a carbon atom. Nitrogen is not part of the chemical structure of alcohols.
What kind of alcohols can be used to prepare aldehydes?
Primary alcohols can be oxidized to aldehydes using mild oxidizing agents such as PCC (pyridinium chlorochromate) or PDC (pyridinium dichromate). Examples of primary alcohols that can be used include ethanol, propanol, and butanol.
