Answer:
158g
Explanation:
To calculate the "weight" (mass) of ethyl alcohol, we have to use this formula:
- Density will have units of gmL when dealing with a liquid or units of gcm3 when dealing with a solid.
The mass has units of grams, g.
The volume will have units of mL or cm3
We are given the density and volume, both of which have good units so all we have to do is rearrange the equation to solve for the mass:
density×volume=massvolume×volume
Density×Volume = Mass
0.789gmL×200.0mL
Thus, ethyl alcohol weighs 158g.
