What Happens When you Mix Alcohol with Water Together?

H ydrogen Bonding In Alcohols. ... However, Ethanol Has A Hydrogen Atom Attached Directly To Oxygen - And That Oxygen Still Has Exactly The Same Two Lone Pairs As In A Water Molecule. Hydrogen Bonding Can Occur Between Ethanol Molecules, Although Not As Effectively As In Water.


Ethanol Interact With Water Molecules

Water Molecules And Sodium Chloride Ions Will Interact

Example image

The Partially Charged water Molecule Will Interact with the Fully Charged Sodium Chloride. These Are Intermolecular Forces. The OH Group, Also Called A Hydroxyl Group, Is A Functional Group Of The Ethanol Molecule.

If you Add 100ml Of Alcohol and 100ml of Water, The Resultant Mix Will be 192ml. It Is Because Of The Close Bonding Between Water And Ethanol Molecules.

Calculation:

If We Add 100ml of Alcohol and 100ml of Water
  • Alcohol=100ml
  • Water=100ml
  • Total=200ml
Note: Total of Alcohol & Water is Mathematically 200ml but when we Mix both of Liquids there is reduce some count of alcohol

Now When Bonding Between Water And Ethanol Molecules It’s Have Only 96% Of Total ml That Mean Decreases 4% Of Total ml (Alcohol 100+Water 100 =200)

Calculation of Decreases 4% in Total (Alcohol 100+Water 100 =200)

= 200ml ÷ 100 × 4%
Decreases ml into Total (200ml) = 8ml

Ex- Calculation of Remainder 96% of Total ml

= 200ml ÷ 100 × 96
Total (Alcohol & Water) = 192ml
