Lager usually contains around 3% to 6% alcohol (ethanol).
Approximately 38% of corn produced in the US is used for ethanol production.
Ethanol is a general term for the chemical compound with the formula C2H5OH, commonly known as alcohol. Absolute ethanol refers to ethanol that is at least 99% pure, with the remaining percentage being water. Absolute ethanol is often used in scientific and industrial applications where purity is critical.
While diesel engines do use fuel with the highest percentage of ethanol (Grain alcohol), they do not use 100% ethanol.
First, determine the mass of ethanol in the mixture by dividing the mass of ethanol by the total mass of the mixture. Then, multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage by mass of ethanol in the mixture. For example, if a mixture contains 20g of ethanol in a total mass of 100g, the percentage by mass of ethanol would be (20g / 100g) * 100 = 20%.
Ethanol is composed of about 52.14% oxygen, 13.16% hydrogen, and 34.70% carbon by mass.
It depends on the percentage of ethanol and the vehicle. My 1994 Chevy K2500 lost about 1 mpg on 11% ethanol.

Typically, pilot gasoline contains around 1-2% ethanol. The percentage may vary depending on the specific regulations or fuel blends in use.
The only way to tell whether ethanol is present in gasoline is to look at the gasoline pump. If it contains ethanol, there should be a large sticker on it stating what percentage of ethanol is in the gasoline.
Divide the mass of the ethanol by the sum of the mass of the ethanol + that of the water and multiply by 100. Mass ethanol/(Mass ethanol + mass H2O) (x100)
