Answer:

See the answer below

Step-by-step explanation:

No, water cannot be used to remove stains from the permanent makers. However, alcohol can be used.

Since the inks of permanent markers are insoluble in water, trying to clean a stain created by a permanent marker with water would be a waste of effort. Only alcohols can be used to successfully remove the stain because the inks will dissolve in the alcohols.
