Best Answer

No. Isopropyl alcohol does not affect the liver in the same way as ethyl alcohol. Furthermore, the effects on the liver come from the functioning of a living liver (!) dealing with alcohol for long periods of time. The conditions possible in an experiment would have no valid relationship to the actual course of alcoholic liver disease.

A thin layer of water might repel a drop of alcohol, however rubbing alcohol is miscible in water in larger quantities. Isopropyl alcohol, of the form C3H7OH, is what we know as rubbing alcohol. The repulsion could be because of the propyl group, however the hydroxyl group should form intermolecular hydrogen bonds with water.

What kind of alcohol is used as rubbing alcohol?

Rubbing alcohol, is a liquid prepared and used primarily for application. It is prepared from a special denatured alcohol solution and contains 97.5-100% by volume of pure, concentrated ethonal(ethyl alcohol) or isopropyl alcohol (isopropanol). Individual manufacturers can use their own "formulation standards" in which the ethanol content usually ranges from 70-99% In the UK the equivalent skin preparation is surgical spirit which is always based on an ethyl alcohol-methyl alcohol mixture.
