**Problem Statement:**

The density of acetic anhydride is \(1.08 \, \text{g/mL}\). Calculate the mass (in grams) of acetic anhydride present in \(2.76 \, \text{mL}\) of acetic anhydride.

---

**Solution Explanation:**

To calculate the mass of acetic anhydride, use the formula:

\[ \text{Mass} = \text{Density} \times \text{Volume} \]

Given:
- Density (\(\text{D}\)) = \(1.08 \, \text{g/mL}\)
- Volume (\(\text{V}\)) = \(2.76 \, \text{mL}\)

Substitute these values into the formula:

\[ \text{Mass} = 1.08 \, \text{g/mL} \times 2.76 \, \text{mL} \]

\[ \text{Mass} \approx 2.9808 \, \text{g} \]

Thus, the mass of acetic anhydride in \(2.76 \, \text{mL}\) is approximately \(2.98 \, \text{g}\).
