12 oz = 354.88ml of beer (this is generally considered a serving.)
now, if the beer is 4.5% by volume alcohol
354.88ml * .045 = 15.9696ml alcohol.
Assuming that 1 ml of alcohol is 1g (which is fairly accurate) then there are about 16g alcohol in a beer.
If the beer is stronger, say 6%:
354.88ml * .06 = 21.2928g alcohol...
It may be as low as 3.25%, and as high as 10%, although percentages higher than 7-7.5% are considered to be malt liquors. Generally the content is 5% alcohol by volume for beers, 12-15% for wine, 20% or higher for ports, sherries, and fortified wine, and 40% for spirits, beyond that it is deemed to be overproof, and may not be legal for sale as liquor.
Pure ethanol in a 12 oz beer is .48 oz. The same as a 4 oz glass of wine or a 1 1/4 oz. shot of liquor.
A typical drink contains less than 40% alcohol. Beer is normally under 6%, wine under 15%, and most spirits are no more than 40% Ethanol is pure alcohol, IE 100%. Hence if one drinks one pint of ethanol it is equivalent to roughly 20 pints of beer. 20 pints of beer takes a long time to consume, and also contains 19 pints of water. The pint of ethanol enters your system in a fraction of the time the same amount of ethanol would do if mixed with beer. It also lacks the 19 pints of water that would be consumed along with the ethanol. The 19 pints of water would be used to "flush" out some/much of the ethanol as the drinker would no doubt urinate many times during the time taken to consuming 20 pints of beer. Also consider that the drinker of beer can "stop" part way through, while the drinker of a pint of ethanol can't, as it has all been consumed before it takes effect.
There is only one type of drinkable alcohol - ethanol. To get drunk it depends on the person. .08 in most states (if not all) is legally drunk. That is an average four drinks at one ounce of pure ethanol per drink. One drink can be: a beer, 8oz of wine, 1 shot of hard proof liquor, or one mixed drink.
Ethanol is an alcohol with 2 carbon atoms and one OH group. It is often called drinking alcohol and is present in beer, wine and hard liquorl. It can be produced by the fermentation of staches or sugars.
Chemically speaking alcohol is meant to be ethanol, which is a pure compound with formula CH3CH2OH, it definitely is not a mixture, except when 'dissolved' in water (most stable solution: 4% water + 96% ethanol. (This is what you get when buying a bottle pure ethanol)rubbing alcohol is a mixtureIf you were to take 'alcohol' into a more specific definition an alcohol is really a hydrocarbon with the functional groupSo if it were, well i would say, 100% ethanol then it would be a compound.
Alcohol such as ethanol, methanol, propanol etc. are one single compound. So, they are pure substances as pure substances are those materials that are composed of only one type of particle.
There is not one constant answer to this. The market on ethanol changes every day. See the link to the Ethanol Market page below to follow up today's prices and recent trends.
Ethanol is a compound that contains the elements carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Therefore, these three elements can be obtained from ethanol. However, it is not customary to write that these elements can be "made from ethanol", because the elements are already present in the compound and are simply separated from one another to obtain the pure elements.
If alcohol comes packed, it depends upon the manufacturing process. According to the manufacturing process, the alcohol may be a mixture of Water, Ethanol and trace quantities of other impurities.But generally the alcohol is pure, and it refers to a compound known as EthanolAlcohol is not a mixture. It is a pure compound. There are lots of compounds that qualify as an alcohol and the word alcohol describes one of these pure products.BUT... in common english, alcohol commonly refers to ethanol (ethyl alcohol) for the purposes of consumption. In this case, it is not simply referring to the pure alcohol, but the entire beverage. In this case, the reference is to the solution of ethanol, water, and other compounds that comprise of the beverage.So, the answer depends on the context in which you ask the question. Hope this helps.
Too much ethanol causes one to make grammar mistakes, as you so kindly showed for us.
Water's composition is H2O (two hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom), while alcohol has molecules that are bound to carbon (e.g. ethanol is C2H6O, or two carbon, six hydrogen, and one oxygen atom), which would be an impurity if found in pure water. Therefore, no alcohol is present in pure water.
Consuming any non-alcoholic beer (misnamed because it contains on-half of one percent alcohol) will result in a positive EtG test.
