Answer:

Ethanol's specific gravity is 0.79, which indicates it is lighter than water but since it is water-soluble it will thoroughly mix with water. Ethanol has an auto-ignition temperature of 793°F and a boiling point of 173°F. Ethanol is less toxic than gasoline or methanol.

hope it will help you

Consequently, ethanol vapors do not rise, similar to vapors from gasoline which seek lower altitudes. Ethanol's specific gravity is 0.79, which indicates it is lighter than water but since it is water-soluble it will thoroughly mix with water.
