Answer :
ANSWER
The mass of glucose in grams is 230 grams
EXPLANATION
Given information
The total volume of the solution = 1.5L
Follow the steps below to find the mass of glucose
Step 1: Convert the volume of the solution from L to mL
According to the standard conversion, 1L is equivalent to 1000mL
Let x represents the volume of the solution in mL
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ 1L }\rightarrow\text{ 1000mL} \\ \text{ 1.5L }\rightarrow\text{ xmL} \\ \text{ Cross multiply} \\ \text{ 1L }\times\text{ xmL = 1000mL }\times\text{ 1.5L} \\ \text{ Isolate x} \\ \text{ xmL = }\frac{1000mL\times\text{ 1.5L}}{1L} \\ \text{ x = }\frac{1000\times1.5\cancel{L}}{1\cancel{L}} \\ \text{ x = 1500mL} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the volume of the solution in mL is 1500mL
Step 2: Find the mass of the glucose in grams
[tex]\begin{gathered} \text{ The mass of glucose = }\frac{15.3}{100}\times\text{ 1500} \\ \text{ The mass of glucose = 0.153 }\times\text{ 1500} \\ \text{ The mass of glucose = 229.5 grams} \end{gathered}[/tex]Hence, the mass of glucose in grams is 229.5 grams
