The chemist plans to try to identify the unknown liquid by measuring the density and comparing to known densities. First, from her collection of Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), the chemist finds the following information: liquid density glycerol 1.3 g•mL dlo -1 1.0 gʻmL ethanolamine pentane -1 0.63 g·mL tetrahydrofuran 0.89 g•mL dimethyl sulfoxide 1.1 g'mL Next, the chemist measures the volume of the unknown liquid as 1955. cm' and the mass of the unknown liquid as 1.22 kg. Calculate the density of the liquid. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits. 08-mL Given the data above, is it possible to identify the liquid? yes O no glycerol ethanolamine If it is possible to identify the liquid, do so. pentane tetrahydrofuran dimethyl sulfoxide
