Solution Steps

Step 1: Calculate the Density of the Unknown Liquid

To calculate the density of the unknown liquid, we use the formula: $$\text{Density} = \frac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}$$ Given that the mass of the unknown liquid is 728 g and the volume is 577 cm^3, the calculated density is 1.262 g/cm^3 after rounding to 3 decimal places.

Step 2: Compare the Calculated Density with Known Densities

We compare the calculated density with the known densities of possible liquids. The calculated density closely matches the density of glycerol, with a difference of 0.001 g/cm^3.

Final Answer:

The unknown liquid is likely glycerol, based on its density.

n 5 of 16 In which of these scenarios is there no opportunity cost? It's Friday night, and you stay up late talking and hanging out with your friends. The chemistry club is giving out free pizza for lunch to all who come to their meeting to get it. Naomi, age 8, is at a bookstore and chooses to buy a book about a young wizard instead of buying a math textbook that she would probably never open. Chez Moi and Chez Nous, two premiere French restaurants with three Michelin stars, both offer you a full time sous chef job at the same salary. You are ecstatic because you know it is a win-win scenario and choose to work for Chez Nous. All of these scenarios have an opportunity cost.
