When 25 ml water is exposed to air practically nothing would happen but there would be a little evaporation wheras when alcohol is exposed to air it gets oxidised to acetic acid so it will taste a little bit like vinegar(Acetaldehyde is an intermediate product)
Rxn of alcohol
C₂H₅OH + [O] ⇒ CH₃CHO + H₂O
CH₃CHO + H₂O+ [O] ⇒ CH₃COOH
