Please post this type of questions in the homework section using the template and showing your work and what you already know.
If we put NaOH in water then it disassociates into ##OH^{-}## ions(hydroxyl ions) but if we put ##C_2H_5OH## in water it does not disassociates into ##OH^{-}## ions.
What is the reason that ##NaOH## disassociates into ##OH^{-}## ions(hydroxyl ions) whereas ##C_2H_5OH## does not disassociate into ##OH^{-}## ions when dissolved in water?
I will be thankful for help!
