If heat energy added to a system can be stored as kinetic energy of the particles, that means that, if the system has heat energy, the particles will have kinetic energy. It's as simple as - the...

The quote is talking about the molecular level, and the molecules certainly have kinetic energy regardless of whether or not one would say the alcohol has kinetic energy as a system. There is...

First Part - That is not all that kinetic energy means. For example, temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of the atoms/molecules of an object. I believe that the words kinetic...

One might actually draw the opposite conclusion. Based on what Glen said, there is a chance that the splashing of alcohol onto a razor caused rusting. A similar scenario would be wiping a razor...

No, I didn't miss that. I said that pure alcohol won't cause rust, but the water used to dilute it might; from the information you provided, all your alcohol solutions were diluted. Your setup...

Alcohol (C3H8O) itself obviously won't cause rust. But if you are using a low concentration solution that has WATER in it, then you will run the risk of rusting. I guess Glen's experiment sheds a...
