There was a lab that involved using iodine, Benedict's reagent, Biuret's reagent, alcohol, and a brown paper bag.  What is the purpose of using the alcohol and what compound(s) does it identify?

No, you explain the brown paper bag first.  Or at least how you catch flies in your eyelashes.  I mean seriously, how do you practice that.

Hey, I'm not judging.  I just like to shoot straight.  I'm a man of science.

Well, half seriously, that's to help stop hyperventilation perhaps (or at least to trap a gas?)
