WHAT DOES ABV MEAN IN ENGLISH?

ABV

Alcohol by volume

Alcohol by volume is a standard measure of how much alcohol is contained in an alcoholic beverage. It is defined as the number of millilitres of pure ethanol present in 100 millilitres of solution at 20 °C. The number of millilitres of pure ethanol is the mass of the ethanol divided by its density at 20 °C, which is 0.78924 g/ml. The ABV standard is used worldwide. In some countries, alcohol by volume is referred to as degrees Gay-Lussac, although there is a slight difference since Gay-Lussac used 15 °C. Mixing two solutions of alcohol of different strengths usually causes a change in volume. Adding pure water to a solution less than 24% by mass causes a slight increase in volume, but mixing solutions above 24% causes a decrease in volume. More information on the phenomenon of volume changes due to mixing dissimilar solutions is discussed in the article on partial molar volume.
