Is water and ethanol a ideal solution?
No this is not an ideal solution, because water and alcohol (ethanol) molecules interact rather complex resulting in eg. an azeotropic boiling point at 96% mixture
What type of alcohol is used in alcoholic beverages?
Ethanol is a pure substance, and hence there is only one variant. Ethanol, (or ethyl alcohol), chemical formula CH3CH2OH, is not generally added explicitly to alcoholic beverages, but rather is created during the fermentation process.

Why do you use a mixture of ethanol and water rather than simply water in soaponification reaction?
The EtOH stabilizes the lard/shortening so that NaOH can react with it faster.
Is ethanol miscible with water?
Very much so, yes. This is why beer, which is typically five to ten percent alcohol and the rest water, presents as a uniform liquid rather than a layer of alcohol floating on top of a mass of water.

How is ethanol and oil the same?
Ethanol and oil for fuel are both rather simple liquid hydrocarbons. Both can be used as fuel for internal combustion engines, turbines, and heating units. In many cases, equipment can be designed or retrofitted to burn either. Both burn to form carbon dioxide and water, but their carbon footprints are different. Petroleum is a fossil fuel, but ethanol is not. Petroleum predictably has a pretty specific carbon footprint, but the carbon footprint of ethanol varies according to how it is produced and is somewhat controversial. The production of ethanol could produce very little global warming gas, but it could also produce a lot.
Absolute value of 1.5?
The absolute value of a positive number is the same number - in this case, 1.5. The absolute value of a negative number is the number, without the sign. Note that the absolute value of an expression like (-x) is not necessarily (x); rather, you have to separately consider the case that x is positive, or that x is negative. For example, the absolute value of x is x (if x is positive), or (-x) (if x is negative).
Is a president or pm better?
One is not "better" than the other in any absolute sense. The two are more or less equivalent, and which title is used has more to do with whether the country was historically a monarchy or not rather than any clear distinction between their actual duties (which can vary considerably even between countries that both use the same title).
