First, we need to convert the density of ethanol from g/cm3 to g/mL:
0.678 g/cm3 = 0.678 g/mL
Next, we can use the formula:
volume = mass / density
to calculate the volume of ethanol needed:
volume = 16.28 g / 0.678 g/mL
volume = 24.03 mL
Finally, we can convert mL to L by dividing by 1000:
volume = 24.03 mL / 1000
volume = 0.024 L
Therefore, 0.024 L of ethanol can be poured into the graduated cylinder to give 16.28 g of alcohol.
What volume of ethanol in a litre (L) having a density of 0.678 g/cm3 can be poured into a graduated cylinder to give 16.28 g of alcohol?
