Alcohol can lower inhibitions, so I guess for some people that means bringing out their true nature.  Some people just use being drunk as an excuse to be a jerk or have sex or whatever.

Vodka has a proof number which is 2 times the % of alcohol. Solvent is the liquid in greater amount. Solute is the one in lesser amount. So if the vodka is 80 proof, it is 40% alcohol, and the alcohol is the solute, and water the solvent.

In algebra, a ratio is the relationship between two quantities. It is expressed as the quotient of two numbers, or as two numbers separated by a colon (pronounced "to"). A number that can be written as a ratio of two integers is a rational number. In physics, a ratio between two magnitudes of the same type of quantity gives a positive real number when the magnitudes are expressed relative to an absolute or natural zero. The ratio between a difference of two magnitudes to a third magnitude, such as a unit, gives a real number (i.e. positive or negative).\n\n\nExamples\nIf a school has a twenty-to-one student-teacher ratio, that means that there are twenty times as many students as teachers. \nThe ratio of heights of the Eiffel Tower (300 m) and the Great Pyramid (137 m) is 300:137, so one structure is more than twice the height of the other (or more precisely, 2.2 times). \nThe ratio of the mass of Jupiter to the mass of the Earth is approximately 317.8:1. \nThe musical interval of a perfect fifth, the pitch ratio 3:2, consists of two pitches, one approximately 1.5 times the frequency of another. \nIf two axles are connected by gear wheels, the number of times one axle turns for each turn of the other is known as the gear ratio. The best example being the number of turns of the pedals of a bicycle compared with number of turns of the bicycle's rear wheel. \nThe ratio of hydrogen atoms to oxygen in water is 2:1, or two parts to one.

5 millimetres.  If something is on a scale of 20:1 it means the original version is 20 times the size.  So it's like saying what's one twentieth of 10cm.

According to New York Law I think .08 is the legal limit of alcohol in the blood. That said, depending on the alcohol content in the drink and amount of food in your stomach, I believe will change that blood level higher or lower. Do u understand that?\nNow a story : In 1968 when I was in the Navy 2-3 screwdrivers got me drunk 12 would have the toilet as my roommate for the night. I used to drive home from Mexico when I felt I could but I also handed over the wheel if "I" thought I should, those were the good old days b4 MADD. I may not like them personally, but today this country needs them! Sh don't tell them I said that!

Set up a ratio:\n\n1.5 = 4\n___  ___\n1_____x      (I put the bar there so it would stay lined up)\n\nCross multiply to get:  1.5x = 4\nDivide both sides by 1.5:  x = 4/1.5 = 2.666667 or \n2 and 2/3 cups

it is a ratio. \nBecause there are 2 moles of A for every 2 moles of D there is a 1:1 ratio. That means that for every 2 liters of gas A there are 2 liters of gas B.\n\nHope I helped

yup, back in the old days in pubs they used to have rowdy customers, so if the people used to drink too much they used to tell them to "mind their pints and quarts," which is how alcohol was served then. and it got shortened to ps and qs.

It means a number between 5 and 200.  You might have to round to the nearest number if it doesn't take decimals.

The difficulty in providing the answer to this question is\nin determining how many ounces are in a shot.\n\nThe first five references are commercial sites which sell\nshot glasses (or equivalent measuring device), ranging in\nsize from 0.875 ounces up to 2 ounces, with the most common\nsizes being 1, 1.25, and 1.5 ounces.\n\nThe next two references claim to be authoritative, but of\ncourse disagree -- one claiming that a shot is 1.25 ounces,\nthe other claiming that it is 1.5.\n\nThe final reference may be the closest to the truth,\nbecause it says (in part):\n\n  "... since shot glasses and jiggers are made in many\n  different portion sizes. A shot really refers to a\n  portion of liquor being served in a shot glass, and the\n  same is true for a jigger."\n\nA pint is 16 fluid ounces and a fifth (as the\nname implies, 1/5 of a gallon) is 25.6 ounces.\n\nSo for the three most commonly quoted sizes for a shot\n(1, 1.25, and 1.5 ounces), a pint is 16, 12.8, or 10.7\nshots and a fifth is 25.6, 20.5, or 17 shots.

Alcohol is a POISON if taken in large quantities. It damages ALL the organs and systems in the body if weekly limits are exceeded, Some systems might recover, but it's a lottery. A hangover is the body,s way of saying, I,m damaged.

It's called a saccrimeter, not sure of the spelling.  Wine and beer makers use it to measeure the amount of sugar left while fermenting.
