I don't know how old you are but I know from your post that you need to learn. Nairaland can serve as a learning forum if you engage yourself. Just an advice

People sef. Dat guy gave a nice lecture which is 100% correct I don't know about manners but if u don't understand him ask him if he could simplify it more for u. Stop asking how old he is and learn.

This is not true. Chemical reactions mean that something can change from one state to another. If a diluted drink can no longer make you as tipsy then it is not that same drink. If you were to write the equation for the reaction would the reactants not be different from the products? A change in the number of molecules affects the molecular structure, meaning that the what you have is actually something else. That's why your sugar drink will be less sweet when you add too much water. Water is a chemical too.
By adding water you have initiated a chemical reaction between the molecules of sugar and H20. What you get is not exactly the same. It cannot be the same. Change is chemical structure effects a change in physical properties; in this case taste.
.

Even though I don't agree with every thing u Said, it's obvious u have strong knowledge in chemistry. The glucose in sugar reacts with water to form carbon dioxide which in water exists as carbonic acid and has a sour taste. So inferentially dat is what caused the change in taste of the solution... Lolx but common sense should tell us dat d taste just changed because of dilution. If not just a little water added should change the taste of the sugar because CO2 is still formed but alas it doesn't

Adding soft drink maintains the concentration of the alcohol content, but reduced the binding frequency for metabolism. Hence less alcohol binds to the alcohol dehydrogenase enzyme per time, compared to taking it alone, binding is fast and direct!

Nice one from the biochemist view.

I take it that there are people who visit this forum to learn and based on that I made an input. When you say the guy is 100% correct, it simply means you need to learn too. For your information, when you see an alcoholic drink, the alcohol content is always written. This is international standard. Whenever you pick an alcoholic drink, check the alcohol content. For instance a bottle of Cape Maclear wine contains 14% Alcohol and the bottle is 750mls. What does this information mean?
It means that every 100mls from this drink contains 14 grams of alcohol. If someone consumes the whole 750mls, he has taken in 14 x 7.5 = 105 grams of Alcohol.
The issue of intoxication is now individually determined, while some may start misbehaving on taking say 10gm of alcohol, others may appear unshaken after consuming say 80mg. We now talk of individual thresholds.

Whatever reason that makes one take alcohol is to get tipsy or high...

Mixing it is just to quench the bitterness but the end result is SURE grin
On point

No, You will use a glass cup or any cup, pour some into the glass cup, maybe half of the volume of the glass cup and add some water to it, in order to dilute it to how u want it thereby reducing the sugar contents...

How will you see it will reduce it?
Ok, take for example, I bought a bottle of Coca-Cola and I mixed it with a bottle of water then I drank the mixed bottle. How does it affect the amount of sugar that will still be present in my stomach when digesting?
