  • A 394.5 mL
  • B 500 mL
  • C 394.5 g
  • D 500 g
Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation:
To calculate the mass of a substance, we can use the formula:
Mass = Volume x Density
Given the volume of ethanol is 500 mL and the density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL, we can plug the values into the formula:
Mass = 500 mL x 0.789 g/mL = 394.5 g
