Default Cloudy gas????

Hygroscopic can refer to either solids (like calcium
chloride) or liquids (like the mineral oil used in HVAC
systems).

He did mean ethanoL not ethanoR.

Gasoline is not hygroscopic unless it has been blended
with ethanor
or other hygroscopic compounds.


I thought the term was "miscible". When you mix alcohol with
gasoline
the mixture is miscible with water because the alcohol is
miscible with
both water and gasoline. I thought "hygroscopic" referred to
solid
compounds?
