You can not get vodka in the UK that has a high enough percentage to be remotely flammable. Try it for yourself
You hare better off using something like Absinthe that is 70% that is more likely to light.
It meant it could catch fire at 100 proof if mixed with gunpowder.
It is 66 proof, so it is 33 per cent alcohol by volume.
divide the proof by 2..that's the % by volume of alcohol content.
the higher the proof the stronger - more alcohol - there is. In the UK 70 dgree proof was the standard strength of whiskey - 40% alcohol. 100 proof is 57.1% alcohol. 175 proof is 100% alcohol. In the USA it is different. 100 proof would be 50% alcohol, 70 proof would be 35% alcohol. 200proof would be 100% alcohol. ie double
Because it contains alcohol. Are you stupid ?
proof is double the alcohol percentage. 40% alcohol= 80 proof
the proof is used to tell you how much alcohol is in it. 100 proof is about 50% alcohol so jsut divide the proof by 2 the higer the proof the more alcohol
50% alcohol Proof ÷ 2 = % alcohol
Alcohol proof is double the actual percentage of alcohol. 100 proof is 50% alcohol, 80 proof is 40%, and 65 proof is 32.5%
'Proof' is a unit of measurement equal to 1 half of 1 percent. Therefore, 150 proof is 75% Alcohol by Volume (although at this point, you're more likely drinking moonshine or grain alcohol and not whiskey)
Alcohol is flammable because it contains carbon and hydrogen atoms that can undergo combustion reactions. When alcohol is exposed to an ignition source such as a flame, heat causes the alcohol vapors to ignite and burn, creating a visible flame.
Alcohol is measured in proof. 100% proof whiskey is 50% alcohol. Everclear is 95% alcohol.
