Question
The image depicts a question on a computer screen:

"What is the mass of 2.6 L of ethyl alcohol, which has a density of 0.789 g/mL?"

Below the question is a blank text box, possibly meant for answering the question. There is no graph or diagram visible. 

To calculate the mass, use the formula:

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

Given:
- Volume = 2.6 L = 2600 mL (since 1 L = 1000 mL)
- Density = 0.789 g/mL

\[ \text{Mass} = 2600 \, \text{mL} \times 0.789 \, \text{g/mL} \]

\[ \text{Mass} = 2052.6 \, \text{g} \]

So, the mass of 2.6 L of ethyl alcohol is 2052.6 grams.
