If 80 proof beverages are 40 percent alcohol what percent alcohol is in a drink that is 20 percent by volume?
20% or 40 proof. All the bottles of alcohol I've ever seen use ABV or alcohol by volume or proof on them. Note: This is based on the US system. In the UK, the ratio of degrees proof is 4:7, not 1:2. The labelling of alcoholic beverages with their ABV percentage is mandated by most governments.
What is one half of the proof for alcohol?
One half of the proof for alcohol is the measurement of its alcohol content, which is expressed as a percentage of alcohol by volume (ABV).

What is 80 proof liquor?
1 ounce = 28.3495 grams; 200 alcohol proof = 100% alcohol content. 2 ounces of 80 proof (40% alcohol) whiskey would be 56.699 grams of whiskey with 22.6796 grams of pure alcohol.
What is the difference between alcohol and liquor?
Alcohol is a substance found in alcoholic drinks, while liquor is a name for these drinks. So for example one might say "I'm drinking liquor, which contains alcohol." Liquor is a beverage that contains alcohol. Not all alcoholic beverages are liquors though, beer, wine, malt beverages all contain alcohol but are not liquors. To be a liquor the beverage must be distilled from one of the fermented beverages mentioned above. Liquors have a much higher proof rating (200 proof is 100% alcohol, 40 proof is 20% alcohol, 1 proof is a 1/2 %) usually around 40 proof, although Bacardi 151 is famous for being 151 proof (75.5%) and some moonshines are higher even. Also not all alcohol is ethanol (the kind you can drink) isopropyl is a different alcohol (rubbing alcohol) and it is not potable! The exact meaning of liquor has changed over time. Decades ago, liquor often referred to beer and wine in addition to distilled spirits. Hence, the term liquor is somewhat ambiguous.
How much is 120 proof alcohol?
120 proof alcohol is 60% alcohol by volume (ABV). The proof system measures the strength of alcoholic beverages, with the proof value being double the ABV percentage. Therefore, if a beverage is labeled as 120 proof, it contains a relatively high concentration of alcohol, making it significantly stronger than standard spirits, which are typically around 40 proof (20% ABV).

High proof distilled beverages such as fortified brandy, high-proof rums and so forth. It is also possible to purchase 95% pure ethyl alcohol. Drinking any of those is not a good idea. They do not taste as good as lower-proof beverages, and only exist for the purpose of getting drunk quickly.
