There are several possible reasons:
If we take 50 ml of two different liquids and mix them they will not always add up to 100 ml. The mixture will be 100 ml only when the chosen liquids don't mix with each other at all, somewhat as in case of oil and water mix.
Alcohol does mix well with the water and therefore the final mixture will have a volume less than 100 ml. At molecular level this happens because molecules of alcohol can fit well between water molecules (compared to molecules of oil between water), thus occupying less overall space, resulting in a smaller volume.
It is because the particles of the water are smaller than the alcohol particles so the water particles can fit between the alcohol.
Another way to explain it would be
Imagine a box filled with footballs, there would be spaces between them well if you poured Golf balls into them they would fill the spaces but still fit into the same size of box!)
Because of forming hydrogen bonds between water and alcohol they will have less volume.

An alcohol solution is obtained when alcohol is dissolved in water (or in any other organic liquid solvents). So the alcohol solution is liquid.

The volume of the water in Beaker X will be 100cm3, as you are not adding any more water to the equation (50X+100Y is not 150Y or X, but 50X+100Y) The total volume of matter in Beaker X will be 150cm3, and if the beaker is labelled, the volume measure will indicate 150cm3 due to the displacement of water. But as the answer to your question, the volume of water in Beaker X must be 100cm3 even though visual indicators will not show this due to the displacement of water by marbles
What is the volume of 35.7g of sodium chloride in 100cm3 of cold water?
The volume of displaced water for a metal cylinder with a volume of 50cm3 is: 13,210 US gallons of water or 11,000 UK gallons of water.

Grams and cubic centimeters are interchangeable. 100g of water = 100cm3 of water.
A liquid-liquid solution that can be separated by distillation would be alcohol and water. Water will boil at a higher temperature allowing separation.
