Why should ethanol be kept away from flame?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because it is a flammable solvent

Ethanol is a flammable solvent, and its vapours can also ignite easily. Therefore, during DNA isolation and other laboratory work, ethanol must be kept away from open flames, sparks, and heat sources. A nuclease or restriction enzyme cuts DNA; ethanol does not. Exam tip: Remember that alcohols such as ethanol are generally classified as flammable chemicals.
