The chemical method of analysis in determination of the blood alcohol content (%BAC) is: K2Cr2O7 + H2SO4 + C2H5OH → Cr2(SO4)3 + K2SO4 + CH3COOH + H2O During a Breathalyzer Test it was determined that 1.20mg of K2Cr2O7 was consumed by the above reaction. Calculate the number of milligrams of ethanol in the test sample. Calculate the Blood Alcohol Content in this sample (%BAC).
