Answer:

Wood alcohol is nothing but methanol.

Explanation:

It is usually produced by the destruction of wood followed by fermenting. Methanol was earlier produced by this process.

Methanol produced by this process is extremely poisonous. It results in destruction of nervous system and acute cardiac failure. It is used for production of fuel and antifreeze agent. It is very volatile and inflammable.

Wood alcohol is a colorless liquid. Methanol is present in homemade alcohol produced by fermenting rice.
