Absolute Alcohol, C2H5OH, (i.e. 100% Ethanol) is pure anhydrous ethanol. Absolute alcohol has a boiling point of 78.3 degC. It is a clear colourless liquid with a pleasant smell. It is completely miscible with water and organic solvents and is very hydroscopic.

Pure Ethanol is called absolute alcohol (ie) it contains no more than 0% water.
Ethanol, also known as ethyl alcohol or grain alcohol, is a flammable, colorless, slightly toxic chemical compound with a distinctive perfume-like odor, and is the alcohol found in alcoholic beverages. In common usage, it is often referred to simply as alcohol. Its molecular formula is variously represented as EtOH, CH3CH2OH, C2H5OH or as its empirical formula C2H6O.
