Answer:

22.73 g

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer this question we need to look up the density of acetone in literature: 0.791 g/mL at 25 °C.

Using the density, we can calculate the mass of acetone in any given volume:


Density=(mass)/(volume)


0.791g/mL=(mass)/(28.74mL) \\mass=22.73g

So at 25 °C, 28.74 mL of acetone would weigh 22.73 g.
