Vad är Blood Alcohol Calculator?

▾

A Blood Alcohol Content (BAC) calculator estimates alcohol concentration in the blood using the Widmark formula. BAC is affected by drinks consumed, time elapsed, body weight, and sex.

Calkulon makes complex calculations simple — built for students and everyday problem-solvers.

Formel

▾

f(x)BAC = (Alcohol grams) / (Body weight kg × r) × 100 − (0.015 × hours), where r=0.68 (male), 0.55 (female)

BAC %	Effects
0.02–0.05	Mild relaxation, slight impairment
0.06–0.10	Impaired judgement, legal limit in many countries
0.11–0.20	Significant impairment, slurred speech
0.20+	Severe impairment, risk of blackout or death

Vanliga frågor

▾

Why do women get drunk faster?

Women have lower body water % (r=0.55 vs 0.68 for men) and typically lower body weight, concentrating alcohol more.

What's the UK legal driving limit?

80 mg/100 mL blood (0.08% BAC) in England/Wales/Scotland. Scotland's limit is lower: 50 mg/100 mL.

Can food affect BAC calculation?

Food slows absorption but doesn't reduce total BAC. It delays peak BAC by 30-60 minutes.
