4. What is the volume of a 0.350-lb sample of ethyl alcohol if its density at thetemperature in question is 0.789 g/mL?
Added by Denet M.
Step 1
We know that 1 pound is equal to 453.592 grams. So, we have: 0.350 lb * 453.592 g/lb = 158.7572 g Now, we can use the density formula to find the volume of the ethyl alcohol sample: Density = Mass / Volume We are given the density (0.789 g/mL) and the mass Show more…

Calculate the volume in milliliters occupied by one molecule of ethyl alcohol, $\mathrm{C}_{2} \mathrm{H}_{5} \mathrm{OH},$ in a beaker of alcohol. The density of ethyl alcohol is $0.789 \mathrm{~g} / \mathrm{mL}$.
You have a 23-$\mathrm{g}$ sample of ethanol with a density of 0.7893 $\mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL} .$ What volume of ethanol do you have?
Ethanol has a density of $0.79 \mathrm{g} / \mathrm{mL} .$ What is the volume, in quarts, of $1.50 \mathrm{kg}$ of alcohol?
