The answer varies in each different liquor, and should be listed on the bottle as "proof". The "Proof" is twice the alcohol percentage, so 40 proof is 20% alcohol, 180 proof is 90% alcohol.
the proof is used to tell you how much alcohol is in it. 100 proof is about 50% alcohol so jsut divide the proof by 2 the higer the proof the more alcohol
48 proof means 24 % alcohol. Sounds like maybe a high alcohol wine or cough medicine.
The "Proof" of an alcoholic beverage is an indicator of it's alcohol content on a 200 point scale. Take the Proof # and divide it by 2 to find out what the percentage is. So, to answer you specific question, 86/2= 43. Therefore 86 proof alcohol is 43 percent alcohol.
It's a 100 proof alcohol, and 50% alcohol content.
20% or 40 proof. All the bottles of alcohol I've ever seen use ABV or alcohol by volume or proof on them. Note: This is based on the US system. In the UK, the ratio of degrees proof is 4:7, not 1:2. The labelling of alcoholic beverages with their ABV percentage is mandated by most governments.
Alcohol is extremely flammable and does not take much for it to catch fire.
30% of however much you drank... e.g. You drank a 50ml shot of 60 proof = 15ml of 'pure' alcohol
Depends on where you go - it generally goes by ABV or "proof". ABV is pretty much understood everywhere since it gives a general measure of how much alcohol is in the beverage by volume. e.g. a pint of beer in the US at 5% ABV will yield about 0.6 US fluid ounces of alcohol.
To find the proof multiply the percentage alcohol by two. To find the percent alcohol, divide by two. i.e.: 50proof=25% 100proof=50% 200proof=100% Seriously, look this stuff up. It's not hard to find.
the higher the proof the stronger - more alcohol - there is. In the UK 70 dgree proof was the standard strength of whiskey - 40% alcohol. 100 proof is 57.1% alcohol. 175 proof is 100% alcohol. In the USA it is different. 100 proof would be 50% alcohol, 70 proof would be 35% alcohol. 200proof would be 100% alcohol. ie double
20% of alcohol am allowed
