That depends entirely on the BAC level, which drops at about .015 of BAC per hour.
Alcohol leaves the body at the rate of about .015 of BAC per hour. There a BAC of .046 would be gone in about three hours.
Roughly 3.5 hours.
It depends on the sex and weight of the individual consuming them. For a 200 lbs male, after 6 hours the BAC would be around 0.005% For a female of 130 lbs, after 10 hours their BAC would be around 0.021%
Alcohol is metabolized at about .015 of BAC per hour. Thus it takes a little over four hours to return to no BAC.
24 hours
A simple way to calculate your BAC is with the following equation APPROXIMATE FORMULA: BAC=(drinks/2)*(Gender_Constant/Weight) - 0.016*Hours. Where 'drinks' is the number of drinks you have had, the 'Gender Constant' is 9.0 for men and 7.5 for women, 'Weight' is your weight in lbs and 'Hours' is how many hours you have been drinking. Following this equation we see that your body is able to reduce your BAC by 0.016 per every hour, thus if a male of weight 150lbs had 6 drinks in an hour their BAC would be 0.1639. If the same person had the same amount of drinks but spaced them out to 3 hours his BAC would be 0.132. That is why it is recommended that you space out your drinking. !!!!!!!!IMPORTANT: THIS IS AN APPROXIMATE EQUATION. DO NOT BASE YOUR DRINKING ON THIS EQUATION!!!!!!!!!!
A general rule of thumb is .02 an hour - so .08 would be 4 hours.
In many Jurisdictions refusal of a BAC test is an automatic six month administrative license suspension.
No, because blood alcohol concentration (BAC) drops at the rate of about .015 per hour. For example, a very high BAC of .150 would be gone in 10 hours.
Todd's BAC will be higher than Hector's
I have read in some articles online that alcohol induced blackouts can occur as early as 0.14 BAC, but that most take place around a BAC of 0.20% and up.
