- Making esters-sweet smelling compounds used to make fragrances and food flavourings
- Making emulsifiers,emollients,and thickners for cosmetics
- Making solvents,for e.g ethanol is used as a solvent for fragrances in perfumes
- Making esters-sweet smelling compounds used to make fragrances and food flavourings
- Uses of alcohols

- Decreased levels of iron,leading to anaemia
- Liver damage
- Destruction of brain cells
- Increased risk of cancer
- Increased risk of heart disease and high blood pressure

- Effects of alcohol
- Alcohols that have small molecule e.g metahnol ethanol and propanol have characteristic odours
- React with oxygen to form carboxylic acids
- As number or carbons increases it changes from miscible to immiscible
- React with carboxylic acids to form esters and water
- As number of carbon atoms in chain increases boiling point increases-higher temperature needed for liquid to boik
- As number of carbons increase its solubitliy in water decreases
- React with oxygen to form carboxylic acids
