    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tert-Butyl_alcohol

    tert-Butyl alcohol is the simplest tertiary alcohol, with a formula of (CH 3) 3 COH (sometimes represented as t -BuOH). Its isomers are 1-butanol, isobutanol, and butan-2-ol. tert -Butyl alcohol is a colorless solid, which melts near room temperature and has a camphor -like odor. It is miscible with water, ethanol and diethyl ether.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naphthalene

    Naphthalene is an organic compound with formula C 10 H 8. It is the simplest polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, and is a white crystalline solid with a characteristic odor that is detectable at concentrations as low as 0.08 ppm by mass. [15] As an aromatic hydrocarbon, naphthalene's structure consists of a fused pair of benzene rings.

    tert-Amyl alcohol (TAA) or 2-methylbutan-2-ol (2M2B), is a branched pentanol. Historically, TAA has been used as an anesthetic [ 3 ] and more recently as a recreational drug . [ 4 ] TAA is mostly a positive allosteric modulator for GABA A receptors in the same way as ethanol . [ 5 ]

  6. Phase rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_rule

    Each salt, in solid form, is a different phase, because each possesses a distinct crystal structure and composition. The aqueous solution itself is another phase, because it forms a homogeneous liquid phase separate from the solid salts, with its own distinct composition and physical properties. Thus we have P = 5 phases.

  7. Tincture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tincture

    A tincture is typically an extract of plant or animal material dissolved in ethanol (ethyl alcohol). Solvent concentrations of 25–60% are common, but may run as high as 90%. [ 1 ] In chemistry, a tincture is a solution that has ethanol as its solvent. In herbal medicine, alcoholic tinctures are made with various ethanol concentrations, which ...
