How to know type of alcohol by colour of flame and duration of combustion?
The major types of alcohol: ETHANOL, PROPANOL, IPA(ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL) AND METHANOL all have their own characteristic flame color which are observed during their combustion.
ETHANOL burns with a BLUE FLAME but METHANOL also burns with A PALE BLUE FLAME but THE MAJOR DIFFERENCE is that METHANOL'S FLAME IS INVISIBLE.
ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL is YELLOW in color whereas PROPANOL is COLORLESS.
