Without much context, not really much other than in the whisk(e)y 45% of the liquid volume is made up of ethanol.
No, ninety proof whiskey is not thirty percent alcohol. In the United States, proof is defined as twice the percentage of alcohol by volume (ABV). Therefore, ninety proof whiskey contains 45% alcohol by volume.
Usually between 40% - 45%, although it gets higher.
45% The percentage of alcohol is always 1/2 of the proof.
50% alcohol Proof ÷ 2 = % alcohol
It depends. Whiskey is a distilled liquor, water is usually added after the distillation and then the whiskey is aged in oak barrels to get a characteristic flavor. A whiskey's alcohol content is marked by a proofing label. This proof is an indication of the percentage of alcohol. 100 proof whiskey is 50% alcohol. some whiskeys are 40 proof, on the low end, and others are as high as 180 proof. Moonshine is not whiskey, it is not aged, that can range from 100 proof to 195 proof.
Whisky (Scottish English) or whiskey(Hibnero-English) is a type of distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented grain mash. Different grains are used for different varieties, including barley, malted barley, rye, malted rye, wheat, and maize (corn). Whiskey is aged in wooden casks, made generally of white oak, except that in the United States corn whiskey direct form the stil is sometimes surreptitiously sold as "White Lightning" and is not aged. But well-aged-in-oak corn whiskey is the American "bourbon", or (depending on still process) "Sour Mash", and is well aged in wood. Whisky is a strictly regulated spirit worldwide with many competing denominations of origin and many classes and types. The typical unifying characteristics of the different classes and types are the fermentation of grains, distillation, and aging in wood. Indian whiskey is an exception, where grain fermentation is not a requirement and the most common basis is fermented molasses. The requirement for aging in wood is also not entirely universal.

No, Whisky contains on average 40 to 45% ABV while wines on average contain 10 to 15% ABV. However, standard drinks of dinner wine (five ounces), beer (12 ounces), and distilled spirits (one and one-half ounces) each contain the same amount of absolute alcohol: 0.6 oz. To a breathalyzer they're identical. And consuming them in moderation has comparable health and longevity benefits.
A whiskey can only be called a Bourbon if it meets several requirements. 1. It must be made in the United States. (it is not required to be made in Kentucky as commonly supposed as there are bourbon distilleries in Virginia, Tennessee, and small bourbon distilleries elsewhere too). However bourbon, like the name Whiskey (spelled with an "e") is limited to the United States. 2. The raw alcohol must not have additives and must be stored in only a charred oak barrel for a minimum of two years. 3. The grain content can vary but must have at least 51 percent corn. 4. It cannot go into the barrel above 125 proof, and the best whiskey is diluted to between 40 and 45% alcohol.
