A chemistry student needs of ethanolamine for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, the student discovers that the density of ethanolamine is . Calculate the mass of ethanolamine the student should weigh out. Round your answer to significant digits.

Respuesta :

Answer:

mass of ethanolamine 61.2 g

Explanation:

Data:

V (Volume) = 60 mL

ρ (Density)= 1.02 [tex]\frac{g}{cm^{3} }[/tex] = 1.02 [tex]\frac{g}{mL}[/tex]

With the given data and using the density formula:

ρ = [tex]\frac{mass}{volume}[/tex]

It is possible to calculate the grams of ethanolamine that the student should weigh out. The mass in the formula is cleared and the data is replaced.

mass =  ρ * volume

mass = 1.02 [tex]\frac{g}{mL}[/tex] * 60 mL = 61.2 g of ethanolamine
