A 'regular' test can only show alcohol in urine until about 12 hours after alcohol intake. Very refined tests (not the kind that people stopped in traffic will face, though) can however detect some by-products caused by earlier alcohol use until about 60 to 80 hours - so 3 to 4 days - after the last alcohol consumption; shorter after only a modest intake, the full 80 days after heavy drinking.
About 72 hours for the urine test. Much longer for the hair follicle test. EtG (ethyl glucuronide) is an alcohol metabolite that remains in your body for several days after the liver has cleared alcohol from the bloodstream.

Yes, if its a urine test for Alcohol. No, if its a standard drug test. Alcohol is not part of the standard drug test. It is less common in preemployment tests or random on-the-job testing, especially for safety sensitive jobs.
Not if your blood was free of alcohol when it was put back on.
Not days, but within a quarter of an hour. It measures alcohol intake constantly.

it depends on how many milliliters of alcohol you consume divided by the average ratio of the alcohol content. The alcohol content is displayed on the back of the bottle.
The nerves on the back of the hand are more sensitive because they are closer to the surface of the skin, allowing them to detect touch, pressure, and temperature more easily than nerves in deeper areas of the body. Additionally, the skin on the back of the hand has a higher density of nerve endings, making it more sensitive to stimuli.
A swab test for alcohol can detect alcohol consumption for up to approximately 12-24 hours after the last drink. Results may vary depending on individual metabolism and the amount of alcohol consumed.
