Chapter 1, Problem 1.12QP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mass of the given grain alcohol has to be calculated.

Concept introduction:

Density: Density (d) is given by the ratio of mass to volume.

$\begin{array}{l}\text{d}\text{=}\frac{\text{m}}{\text{V}}\\ \text{d}\text{-}\text{density of the substance; m}\text{-}\text{mass of the substance}\\ \text{V-}\text{volume}\text{occupied by the substance}\end{array}$

From the above equation mass can be calculated by rearranging the equation.
