Alcohol \Al"co*hol\ ([acr]l"k[osl]*h[ocr]l), n. [Cf. F. alcool,       formerly written alcohol, Sp. alcohol alcohol, antimony,       galena, OSp. alcofol; all fr. Ar. al-kohl a powder of       antimony or galena, to paint the eyebrows with. The name was       afterwards applied, on account of the fineness of this       powder, to highly rectified spirits, a signification unknown       in Arabia. The Sp. word has both meanings. Cf. {Alquifou}.]       1. An impalpable powder. [Obs.]          2. The fluid essence or pure spirit obtained by distillation.             [Obs.] --Boyle.          3.

(Organic Chem.) A class of compounds analogous to vinic             alcohol in constitution. Chemically speaking, they are             hydroxides of certain organic radicals; as, the radical             ethyl forms common or {ethyl alcohol} ({C2H5.OH}); methyl             forms {methyl alcohol} ({CH3.OH}) or {wood spirit}; amyl             forms {amyl alcohol} ({C5H11.OH}) or {fusel oil}, etc.
