The highest grade of distilled alcohol is called Cologne spirits, used largely in the preparation of perfumes, etc., and is said to be more absolute in its purity than ordinary alcohol. It should be so pure that it is absolutely colorless and odorless, Diluted Alcohol or Proof Spirit. – Diluted alcohol (alcohol dilu-tum), proof spirit, is spirit containing fifty per […]

Alcohol at a strength of about 10 per cent. and upwards acts as a preservative of many organic substances. and is often added to medicinal preparations, extracts, wines, etc., to prevent putrefactive deterioration. In the absence of better antiseptic remedies it may serve as a useful application to wounds if used somewhat freely and of not too low a strength […]
Adding together 40millilitres of alcohol and water. Surprisingly the mixture added up to about 78 millilitres amd not the expected 80 ml. Like a good science you try the experiment for couple of times and yes it will give you the same result. We found out that 40 ml of water added to 40ml of alcohol gave 78ml! When alcohol […]

On the ground of economy, sawdust or other wood waste is […]
Speaking broadly, oxidising agents convert ethyl alcohol into aldehyde and acetic acid: – C2H5.OH+O=CH3.CHO + H1O; C2H5.OH+O2=CH3.COOH + H1O. The character and quantity of the products vary, however, according to the conditions of the oxidation. When this is carried out with potassium dichromate or permanganate in aqueous-acid solution, the foregoing are the products; with permanganate in neutral solution, acetic acid, […]
(1). To convert percentage of alcohol by volume into percentage by weight. Multiply the volume percent age by the specific gravity of absolute alcohol (0 7936), and divide the product by the specific gravity of the liquid in question. For let S be the specific gravity of the liquid (at 15.6°/l5.6o). Then 100 c.c. weigh 100 Sρ grams, where ρ […]
