In a beer an alcohol content of 5.9% is higher than standard. I suppose U.S. beer is all watered down so 5.9% is probably a pretty strong beer there. But here in Canada 5.9% is stronger than most, but by no means a strong beer.
Not really, though it does depend on your body weight. A heavier person can typically drink more than a lighter person without effects.
There is no way to calculate that with the information provided. We need to know the volume of each.
A lot%
I believe it's 14ml in a liter.
That's about middle of the road.
You divide by two. The percentage is 14%
40% alcohol is 80 proof and about the average proof of many hard liquors.
Primarily, the alcohol level. A four ounce glass of wine at 12 percent alcohol has about 120 calories; the same size with a wine 14 percent alcohol has about 140-160 calories; a 16 percent alcohol wine, about 160-190 calories.
.35x+.40*14=0.37(x+14) .35x=.37x-5.6+5.18 .35x=.37x-.42 -.02x=.42 x=21 check 21*.35+14*.4=7.35+5.6=12.95 12.95/(14+21)=.37 so you would need 21 ounces of 0.35 mixed in with 14 ounces of 40 % to get a 37% solution of which you would have 35 ounces
2.8 percent alcohol
It is difficult and expensive to refine anything to 100% purity. Best to use 70% as it is just as effective and cost a whole lot less.
Because the concentration of alcohol is lower; you pay the alcohol not the water.
This is a solution containg 60 percent isopropyl alcohol; can be used as rubbing alcohol.
