Best Answer

depends on what the alcohol is. the percentage of alcohol is printed on the bottle, so if you drink a one ounce shot of Bacardi 151, the amount of alcohol is .755 ounces. Say a beer is twelve ounces with an alcohol percentage of 5.5 percent means there are .66 ounces.

How much alcohol is in a standard alcoholic beverage?

The amount of alcohol in a standard drink varies in different countries, from 6 grams in Austria to 19.75 grams in Japan. (Japan, as a country, is in serious denial about the extent of their drinking problems. Binge drinking is sort of a national sport.)In the United States, a standard drink (unit) of alcohol is any drink that contains about 14 grams of pure alcohol (about 0.6 fluid ounces or 1.2 tablespoons). In the US, a standard drink is calculated as roughly the amount of alcohol that can be metabolized by the human body in one hour. In other words, if you drank one unit per hour you could (at least in theory) continue to drink indefinitely without becoming intoxicated. In fact, metabolic rates vary among individuals and by gender, so this is not even an accurate approximation.

What is the relationship between Blood Alcohol Content BAC and standard drinks?

One standard drink (in the US*) is equal to 0.6 ounces (about 14 grams) of pure alcohol, the average amount that the human liver can metabolize in one hour. The actual amount of time depends on the health of the individual's liver, and on gender. Women do not metabolize alcohol as efficiently or rapidly as men.The relationship of a standard drink to blood alcohol content also depends on the size of the person, their body mass index, and of course gender. The general rule of thumb is that 2 "Standard Drinks*" in the first hour will raise your BAC about to 0.07%, and one "Standard Drink" per hour thereafter will maintain that level.*The amount of alcohol in a standard drink varies from country to country.


It is estimated that it could take up to for your liver to get rid of the alcohol in one standard drink?

This is variable. It depends on a number of factors which include: • How often you drink • If you have eaten • Your size • Your weight The list is endless; there is no specific time, sorry. Also there isn't really such thing as a standard drink; what's standard to you could be someone else's mouth-wash.
