Answer 2

Answer: The mass of acetone is 22.61 g

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate mass of a substance, we use the equation:

`\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}`

We are given:

Density of acetone =
`0.7857g/cm^3`

Volume of acetone =
`28.78mL=28.78cm^3` (Conversion factor:
`1cm^3=1mL` )

Putting values in above equation, we get:

`0.7857g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of acetone}}{28.78cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of acetone}=22.61g`

Hence, the mass of acetone is 22.61 g
