A 1.00 L bottle of wine, labeled as 8.5% (by volume) ethanol, is found to have a defective seal. Analysis of 1.00 mL showed that there were 0.0274 grams of acetic acid in that 1.00 mL. The density of ethanol is 0.816 g/mL and the density of water is 1.00 g/mL. What mass of oxygen must have leaked into the bottle? I'm pretty good with conversions and molarity and stuff but I mainly need to know how to even go about answering this question.
