i want to ask that whether alcohols are acidic or basic or both depending upon the medium?
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
alcohols are neutral but can be made to react amphoterically (as acids or alkalis), depending on the conditions.
 
thats the answer i was looking for

thanks for quick response...:approve:
