95 ml of ethyl alcohol to 5 ml of water
So as not to 'waste' too much ethanol. To use 95 % ethanol allows some ethanol to be saved!
It is prepared by taking five volume of ethanol and dissolve in 100 ml of water .
Find the volume of the 100% ethanol Add 1/19 of water to the volume (if it is like 190ml, add 10ml of water since 190/200=95%)
Add 10 parts water to 90 parts 100% ethanol.
It is an alchoholic compound i.e. 95% ethanol.
One has 4.5 percent more alcohol which is important because you can get to a max of 95 percent using fractional distillation. To get the 99.9 percent or absolute alcohol, you need to use other more advanced methods. Some of these include include desiccation using adsorbents.
70% is the most effective concentration to denature poteins so killing bacteria. At 95% the ethanol just evaporates and leaves the protein untouched. Below 70% does not denature proteins. It also makes the ethanol less flammable.
1. Extract 959,6 mL from the 99 % solution. 2. Add 40,4 mL water.
To prepare 100ml of 70% Ethanol, measure 70ml of 95% ethyl alcohol in a graduated cylinder and add 30ml of distilled water. To prepare 100ml of 70% Ethanol, measure 70ml of 95% ethyl alcohol in a graduated cylinder and add 30ml of distilled water.
Absolutely, recent painstaking scientific research has showed that 70% ethanol is the same as 70% ethanol.
to save the ethanol
According to the CRC Handbook, 70th edition, the density of 94% ethanol is 0.8070 g/ml and the density of 96% ethanol is 0.8013 g/ml. We can interpolate to find that the 95% ethanol should be 0.8042 g/ml.
