Properties

PropertiesPure ethanol is a flammable, colorless liquid with a boiling point of 78.5° C. Its low melting point of -114.5° C allows it to be used in antifreeze products. It has a pleasant odor reminiscent of whiskey. Its density is 789 g/l about 20% less than that of water. It is easily soluble in water and is itself a good solvent, used in perfumes, paints and tinctures.
