Answer:

983.84 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Density (D) = 1.04 g/mL

Volume (V) = 1 quart = 946 mL

Mass(m) =?

The density of a substance is simply defined as the mass of the substance per unit volume of substance. mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Density (D) = mass (m) /volume (V)

D = m/V

With the above formula, we can obtain the mass of 1 quart of milk as follow:

Density (D) = 1.04 g/mL

Volume (V) = 1 quart = 946 mL

Mass (m) =?

D = m/V

1.04 = m/946

Cross multiply

m = 1.04 × 946

m = 983.84 g

Therefore, the mass of 1 quart of milk is 983.84 g
