alcohol % per volume x 2 = proof. So 80 Proof booze is 40% alcohol.
Divide the proof spirits by 2 to get the alcohol by volume. Alcohol by volume multiplied by .8 gives alcohol by weight.
This is often the reason Canadian beer are thought to be stronger an 8% proof beer is the same as a 3.2 beer buy weight.
In the United States, the alcohol-by-volume proof measurement equates to twice the percentage of alcohol content. If a beverage contains 28% alcohol by volume, it would be considered to be 56 proof.
In the United States the percentage of alcohol by volume in Miller Lite is 4.2. It contains 110 calories per bottle or can according to the Miller website.
To convert 3 mmol of alcohol to blood alcohol concentration, you would need to know the volume of distribution in the body. Without this information, a direct conversion is not possible. Blood alcohol concentration is typically measured in units of mass per volume (e.g., g/dL or mg/L), not in mmol.
Utah measures alcohol conteent by weight instead of by volume like the rest of the country. Currently the limit is set at 3.2%. When you convert this to by volume it becomes approximately 4.3%. This is still less than the 5.0 allowed in most states.
In the United States, the "proof" descriptor for a bottle of liquor is defined as twice the percentage of alcohol by volume. Thus, a bottle labeled as "100 proof" will consist of 50% alcohol-content.
Multiply ABW (alcohol by weight) by 1.25 to get ABV (alcohol by volume). Multiply ABV by 0.8 to get ABW. This isn't exact because different beers have different ingredients, but it will get you very close every time.
It means just that. If you have a 1 Liter alcoholic beverage that states it is 5% alcohol by volume, then 50 milliliters of it is pure alcohol.

Yes, it can in fact have much higher than that, and does when it is initially distilled, it is usually watered down to whatever the bottling proof is. In the United States however, several vodkas of 151 proof or 75.5 percent alcohol are available.
Alcohol by Volume.
The volume of alcohol in the solution is 110.0 ml, calculated by multiplying the volume of the solution (200.0 ml) by the alcohol by volume percentage (55%).
