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...

Is ethanol a mixture or a pure substance?

Ethanol is a pure substance, but it is rare to encounter it pure. Laboratory alcohol usually contains small amounts of water and methanol. Alcoholic drinks contain large quantities of water, as well as flavourings.


Why can't you drink ethanol if it's made out of the same thing alcoholic drinks are made of?

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.


Is 100 percent ethanol a pure substance?

Is rubbing alcohol with seventy percent alcohol a substance or a mixture?

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.


How could one determine whether a colorless liquid contained ethanol or ethanol and sucrose?

One could perform a simple density measurement to distinguish between ethanol and a mixture of ethanol and sucrose. Since sucrose has a higher density than ethanol, the density of the mixture would be higher than that of pure ethanol. Additionally, one could analyze the liquid using a technique such as gas chromatography to separate and identify the individual components present in the liquid.
