What does typically mean? If you mean the rubbing alcohol that is found at the pharmacy, it is usually a solution of approximately 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water. If you buy isopropanol from a chemical company, it will be pure and can have less than 0.001% water if you choose (there are numerous types of varying purity).

Isopropyl alcohol is not typically mixed with water. However, common commercial solutions like rubbing alcohol are about 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water.
Yes, rubbing alcohol (isopropyl alcohol) is a homogeneous mixture because it consists of a single phase with uniform composition throughout, typically containing 70% isopropyl alcohol and 30% water.
Germ-X typically contains ingredients such as ethyl alcohol (ethanol), water, glycerin, carbomer, fragrance, and sometimes aloe vera. These ingredients work together to kill germs, moisturize the skin, and provide a pleasant scent.
No, 70% isopropyl rubbing alcohol is a homogeneous mixture because it is a uniform solution of isopropyl alcohol with water. It has the same composition throughout and its components are evenly distributed.
No, isopropyl alcohol is a non-electrolyte. It does not dissociate into ions in water, so it does not conduct electricity like electrolytes do.
When isopropyl alcohol is mixed with water, it releases energy due to the solvation process, leading to an overall increase in temperature. This is because energy is released when the intermolecular forces between water molecules and isopropyl alcohol molecules are formed.
