Part A:
Ans: Mass=14.11 g.
Given:
The volume of acetone, V=17.96 mL.
We know, the density of acetone, D=0.7857 g/mL.
The mass in grams of acetone is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} M=VD \\ =17.96\text{ mL}\times0.7857\text{ g/mL} \\ =14.11\text{ g} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, mass of acetone in grasm rounded upto four significant figures is 14.11 g.
Mass=14.11 g.
Part B:
Ans: V=9.42 mL
Given
The mass of acetone, M=7.4 g.
We know, the density of acetone, D=0.7857 g/mL.
The volume in mL of acetone is,
[tex]\begin{gathered} V=\frac{M}{D} \\ =\frac{7.40\text{ g}}{0.7857\text{ g/mL}} \\ =9.42\text{ mL} \end{gathered}[/tex]Therefore, voulme of acetone in mL rounded upto three significant figures is 9.42 mL.
Volume, V=9.42 mL
