A chemist working as a safety inspector finds an unmarked bottle in a lab cabinet. A note on the door of the cabinet says the cabinet is used to store bottles of diethylamine, tetrahydrofuran, chloroform, ethanolamine, and acetone. First, from her collection of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSOS), the chemist finds the following information: liquid density
diethylamine 1.1 gcm-3
tetrahydrofuran 0.7 9gcm-3
chloroform 0.71 gcm-3
ethanolamine 0.89 gcm-3
acetone 1.6 gcm-3
Next, the chemist measures the volume of the unknown liquid as 0.767 L and the mass of the unknown liquid as 682 g.
1. Calculate the density of the liquid.
2. Given the data above, is it possible to identify the liquid?
3. If it is possible to identify the liquid, do so.
a. dimethyl sulfoxide.
b. acetone.
c. diethylamine.
d. tetrahydrofuran .
e. carbon tetrachloride
