Show transcript
Alcohols can react, at their functional group -OH, with sodium, oxygen, water, or an oxidising agent.
Alcohols need less oxygen than equivalent alkanes in order to burn completely.
Alcohols are good solvents which also mix with water.
The boiling point of ethanol is much higher than the boiling point of ethane.
Ethanol can be formed via fermentation of glucose (renewable) or via hydration of ethene (non-renewable).
