Is 14 percent alcohol a lot?

In a beer an alcohol content of 5.9% is higher than standard. I suppose U.S. beer is all watered down so 5.9% is probably a pretty strong beer there. But here in Canada 5.9% is stronger than most, but by no means a strong beer.

Why it dissolves in alcohol?

Substances dissolve in alcohol due to the polarity and molecular structure of alcohol, which allows it to interact effectively with various solutes. Alcohol, such as ethanol, has both hydrophilic (water-attracting) and hydrophobic (water-repelling) properties, enabling it to dissolve a wide range of polar and nonpolar compounds. The hydrogen bonding capabilities of alcohol also facilitate interactions with solutes, leading to their dissolution. This dual nature makes alcohol an excellent solvent for many organic and inorganic substances.

Is alcohol-free wine just as good for you?

Not really. However, if people falsely believe that a non-alcoholic beverage contains alcohol and consume a sufficient quantity, they can believe they are intoxicated and act intoxicated. See, for example, the related link.

Is there any formaldehyde in alcohol?

A Korean liquor called soju contains formaldehyde. When you drink soju, you take the cap off and pour off the top inch of liquid to get it all out.

I assume that by alcohol you are referring to beer or something of that nature. Formaldehyde and other carbon-based compounds. People who live in mobile homes have become seriously ill due to their allergic reaction to the glues and resins used to assemble them. Mobile homes, especially older ones, contain a lot of formaldehyde in their construction.

Formaldehyde well below any possible toxic level is sometimes added to beer and ale as a partial preservative.

Apart from that, there is no formaldehyde in alcohol naturally. HOWEVER, all the necessary ingredients are there. Methanol (wood alcohol or shellac thinner) is so close chemically that the human body transforms it into formaldehyde, instead of into the similar chemical acetaldehyde that the body is equipped to break down and excrete.

Drinking methanol results in a rapid buildup of formaldehyde in the body that can cause rapid blindness, organ failure and death. If one escapes death, the likelihood of brain damage and neural problems is high.

Ironically, ethyl alcohol (beverage alcohol) is the antidote of choice for methanol poisoning, as the body will metabolize the ethanol first, slowing down the absorption of the methanol and allowing the body to deal with it more slowly. The ethanol levels required may, however, create their own problems, and this treatment should not be administered by untrained people. That said, if your buddy drinks a lot of wood alcohol and there's no ER nearby, you're on your own.

Straining wood alcohol through a loaf of bread DOES NOT make it safe to drink. It just ruins the bread.

Is wine less intoxicating than beer?

The intoxicating effect of alcohol is based on alcohol content measured as a percentage of volume. The higher the percentage of alcohol the stronger the beverage and more intoxicating compared to the same volume of lower percentage beverage.

In the case of most wine and beer, wine often has more alcohol by volume than beer.

Does alcohol content disappear when a beer is left open?

When alcohol is left alone, the content becomes stronger due to fermentation. Wines and alcohol, though, can only reach a certain level of fermentation due to the yeast that is in them. Once the content reaches a certain level, the yeast dies off, hence stopping further fermentation and possibly destroying alcohol content. So, to say that alcohol content disappears when you leave a beer open depends on some factors. What alcohol content is the beer, has it been stored at a cold temperature, is the carbonation affecting it, all though I believe it would be safe to say the alcohol content would (at least some) still be in tact, it's the freshness of beverage and the quality. Would you really want to drink it? And how many days has it been opened. I know that wine required specific storing conditions or it will go bad due to residue and wine particles gathering and spoiling the wine, but am uncertain if the same principles apply to beer.
