what is denatured ethyl alcohol?what is it used for?

Main article: Denatured alcohol\nIn most jurisdictions, the sale of ethanol, as a pure substance or in the form of alcoholic beverages, is heavily taxed. In order to relieve non-beverage industries of this tax burden, governments specify formulations for denatured alcohol, ethanol blended with various additives to render it unfit for human consumption. These additives, called denaturants, are generally either toxic (such as methanol) or have unpleasant tastes or odors (such as denatonium benzoate).\nSpecialty denatured alcohols are denatured alcohol formulations intended for a particular industrial use, containing denaturants chosen so as not to interfere with that use. While they are not taxed, purchasers of specialty denatured alcohols must have a government-issued permit for the particular formulation they use and must comply with other regulations.\nCompletely denatured alcohols are denatured alcohol formulations that can be purchased for any legal purpose, without permit, bond, or other regulatory compliance. It is intended that it be difficult to isolate a product fit for human consumption from completely denatured alcohol. For example, the completely denatured alcohol formulation used in the United Kingdom contains (by volume) 89.66% ethanol, 9.46% methanol, 0.50% pyridine, 0.38% naphtha, and is dyed purple with methyl violet.\n\nALDRICH CHEMICAL -- ETHYL ALCOHOL, DENATURED \nMATERIAL SAFETY DATA SHEET

None. They are two different compounds.\n\nIt looks like you want to compare a specific property of the alcohols. Please specify!

Please folks take this question seriously. After all fermentation is a natural chemical process. And alcohol (ethyl alcohol C2H2 ?) is an organic compound. One of the moons of Jupiter (is it Europa?) is most likely to have ocean of methane (methyl alcohol CH4).\nIf there is someone who wants to see this much beer, we should help that someone to get there?

Yes it's fine, they both kill bacteria.\n\nhttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethyl_alcohol#Other_uses

the formula is CH3CH2OH,the structural formula for ethyl alcohol. The molecular formula is C2H5OH\n\nOh sorry!the answer should be: CnH2n+1OH(general formula)

All alcoholic prducts sold for consumption in the uniteds states contain the active ingredient ethanol. CH3CH3OH is the structural formula.\nThe differences between, say, Vodka and rum are in the impurities.  A spiced rum, for example has impurities that change the taste and color of the liquid.

Aside from the fact that it boils at -33.5°C, ammonia is a polar molecule, so it's best solvent use would be with other polar molecules, and water and alcohols would be far better solvents.  I would classify it as a poor solvent since it would be hard to use because you would have to keep it very cold, and there are better solvents you could use.\n\nUses:  Fertilizer (as mentioned previously); manufacture of nitric acid, hydrozine hydrate, hydrogen cyanide, urethane, acrylonitrile and sodium carbonate (by Solvay process); refrigerant; nitriding of steel; condensation catalyst; synthetic fibers; dyeing; neutralizing agent in petroleum industry; latex preservative; sulfite cooking liquors; fuel cells; rocket fuel; yeast nutrient; developing diazo films.

put it in the freezer and leave it.  the water will freeze and the alcohol won't.  that's why good vodka is kept in the freezer...

There are many different solvent systems that can be used, depending on the type of plate being used and the alkaloids under examination.\n\nThe most common, from a forensic application, is a silica gel plate developed in a 1.5 to 100 mixture of NH4OH in methanol.

liquor alcohol , is a distilled drinks contains 40 to 50 percent or more of ethyl alcohol, in general alcohols(ROH) are neutral ,  the cleavage is in the -OH group and in some cases it reacts with some metals to form alkoxide (ROM eg:C2H5ONa)by loosing a proton H+.

Distilled water is used when an absolute known water quality is desired. We use distilled water in the manufacture of various chemical products, intravenous solutions, medications, syrups, and in industry to protect delicate instruments from the build-up of calcium and iron. It is used in batteries to prolong the life of wet cells and as the dilutent for the electrolyte. We use distilled water to flush wounds during surgery and as a solvent for lyophlized medications and vaccines. It is seldom drunk because it has no taste (the taste of water is due to the mineral content which is removed by distillation). Most processed liquids that are consumed use distilled water so as to keep the original taste of the product.

Ethyl Glucuronide is a metabolite of alcohol. It is a byproduct of alcohol metabolism.

alcohols have a hydroxyl group, which the oxygen atom is electronegative and induces polarisation to the O-H bond, that means the oxygen atom is negatively changed and the hydrogen atom is positively charged (in the hydroxyl group). So that hydrogen atom in the hydroxyl group attracts to other negatively charged oxygen atoms on another molecule, so the 2 are held together by what is called hydrogen bonding\n\nalkane molecules only hold on together by Van der Waals forces, which is weak, whereas alcohols hold on together by hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals forces, which is a lot stronger\n\nso with stronger intermolecular forces, molecules hold on to each other stronger and therefore results as a higher boiling and melting point

Most alcohols can be used as a disinfectant, but for children and young adults I have found honey is a great disinfectant..and you do have to put a ban-dad on it be cause the honey turns into one.. but if you want to use alcohol on yourself more power to you   OUCH@@@ I am a 61 year old baby.. i will stick to the honey.....

It looks like an alcohol.  An alcohol has the structure R-O-H, where R is any alkyl (carbon and hydrogen) group.
