Question

What is the mass in grams of 17.56 mL of acetone, which has the density of 0.7857 g/cm^3

Answer 1

To get the mass of acetone, simply multiply the volume of acetone to its density. Since 1
`cm^3` = 1mL, therefore the volume of acetone is also equal to 17.56
`cm^3`. In getting the mass,
mass = volume*density

`mass = 17.56 cm^3 ( (0.7857g)/(cm^3) ) \\ mass=13.797g`

The mass of the acetone is 13.797g.
