. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant

Answer 1

Yes, the answer has the correct significant figures. We start with 93.8 mL of chloroform, and using its density of 1.489 g/mL, we can calculate the mass by multiplying the volume by the density:

93.8 mL x 1.489 g/mL = 139.8762 g

Rounded to three significant figures, the mass in grams of chloroform is 140 g.
