Aluminium sulfate, or alum, is only slightly soluble in ethanol. And, when mixed into a sulfuric acid solution, aluminium sulfate dissolves.

So, the product of mixing all 3 together would be an ethanol aluminum sulfate solution.

Nothing, unless the sulphuric acid is very hot and concentrated. Then you can get a variety of products, for example ethene.
