    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethanol

    Ethanol (also called ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol, drinking alcohol, or simply alcohol) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 OH. It is an alcohol, with its formula also written as C 2 H 5 OH, C 2 H 6 O or EtOH, where Et stands for ethyl. Ethanol is a volatile, flammable, colorless liquid with a characteristic wine-like ...

  3. Methanol - Wikipedia

    CO 2 + 3 H 2 → CH 3 OH + H 2 O. where the H 2 O byproduct is recycled via the water-gas shift reaction. CO + H 2 O → CO 2 + H 2. This gives an overall reaction CO + 2 H 2 → CH 3 OH. which is the same as listed above. In a process closely related to methanol production from synthesis gas, a feed of hydrogen and CO 2 can be used directly. [55]

  9. Methanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanium

    At about 270 Pa of pressure and ambient temperature, the methane ion CH + 4 will react with neutral methane to yield methanium and a methyl radical: [11] CH + 4 + CH 4 → CH + 5 + CH 3 • The methanium ion can also be made in the gas phase via the reaction of methane and an H + ion (i.e. a proton). [citation needed] CH 4 + H + (g) → CH + 5
