Which Takes up greater volume, 1000g of water or 1000g of alcohol? Why?

The density of alcohol (ethyl) is 0.789 g/mL, so it would take up more space (less dense).  Water is 1 g/mL

There are thousands of alcohols, its a class of organic compounds(made of carbon chains). All alcohols have a hydroxyl group attached somewhere on the carbon chain.\nThe general formula for alcohols is R-OH, where R is the carbon chain.

the last guy to answer was correct.  alcohol and water create what is called an azeotropic mixture after you get to 95% alcohol and 5% water.  you can do something like add trace amounts of benzene to the mix and that will make it so you can have a higher alcohol percentages, but I wouldn't recommend drinking that (I only assume that because you are using proof as the unit of measurement).  anyway, you can distill your alcohol to 190 proof but not 200 without introducing something else.

Specific heat capacity of water is high so it takes away the heat from engine better compared to other liquids. And of course its avaliable in plenty

Yes, because the alcohol has a different specific gravity from water, and the alcohol will change the volume it occupies as it melts.\n\nIf however it were an ice cube floating freely in the water, the level would not change when it melts because the specific gravity is the same and the melted former-ice-cube-water will therefore exactly fill the volume of the ice cuibe that was submerged when floating.

any type of alcohol. Everclear?? haha

compressing 2 liters of water into a 1 liter volume\n\nLiquids are not compressible.

The actual reason that alcohol evaporates quicker than water has to do with vapor pressure.\n\nAll liquids have a certain amount of vapor at the surface of the liquid.  Since the intermolecular forces are weaker within a smaple of alcohol than within a smaple of water, there is more vapor present above the surface of alcohol than above the surface of water. The more vapor above the surface, the higher the vapor pressure.  The higher the vapor pressure, the faster the rate of evaporation. \n\nSince there is more vapor present above the surface of the alcohol, more molecules will randomly leave the surface and go into the air surrounding the container.  This is the process of evaporation, which is different than boiling.  The two are related, but not the same.\n\nThis difference in rates of evaporation has nothing to do with the heat capacities of water and alcohol.

Well Alcohol is a little lighter than water, and 1 gram of water is 1 mililiter.\n\nThere are 473 mililiters in 1 US pint so there are a little less than 473 grams of alcohol in a pint.\n\nNow keep in mind, your typical vodka is only 40% alcohol, wine is about 12% and most american beer is 3-5%.\n\nSo to get 30 grams of alcohol you would need to drink approximately 2 12 ounce american beers.

Sounds like overhydration.

water is denser than wood

water has density 1gm/ml. what ever is the volume in ml for water same is the mass in gms because density = mass/volume\n\n\ni hope it will help you out

One metric ton of sugar produces about 79.5 liters of alcohol.  It's not clear if this is harvested or dry weight, though.

I think it might take longer than over night to see a big difference in alcohol concentration but alcohol has a lower vapor pressure than water so it will vaporize faster.

1 drink = 1 hour.\n\n1 drink = 1 shot of alcohol, 1 glass of wine or 1 beer.

by distilling non-pure alcohol. (you need the proper equipment though - they do this in like high school chemistry class or something like that). But as far as I know, it's impossible to get 100% pure alcohol, because it will absorb some water vapour from the air, so the closest you can get is lika 99,8% or something.
