(i) Chemical formula - CH3CH2OH
Name of compound - Ethanol
Two uses of ethanol
(1) It is used as a fuel
(2) It is used as and anti bacterial hand sanitizer gels as an antiseptic
CH3CH2OH + Na → CH3CH2ONa + H2
∴ Hydrogen gas is evolved.
(ii) Ethanol on reacting with hot concentrate sulphuric acid produces ethene and water.
CH3–CH2–OH → (H2SO4 + Heat) → CH2 = CH2 + H2O
