  Since I don't see a sci.chemistry group, thought this might be the next
  best palce for my question regarding methyl alcohol, methanol for short.
  Which is, is there any easy way to determine the amount of water mixed
  in with the methanol????  I have some methanol, but I suspect that it is
  contaminated with water.  Could I simply take a small sample, say 2 oz,
  burn it and the remaining liquid is water??  Any ideas???  Thanks.
