Question

What is the mass, in grams, of the ethyl alcohol that exactly fills a 220 mL container? The density of ethyl alcohol is 0.789 g/mL. Group of answer choices 170 g 173.58 g 280 g 278.833967 g

Answer 1

`m=173.58g`

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the density is the ratio of the mass and volume:

`\rho =(m)/(V)`

For the given density and volume, the correct mass which fills the given volume is:

`m=\rho *V=0.789g/mL*220mL\\\\m=173.58g`

Best regards.
