Answer :
To determine the volume of ethanol in a 750 mL bottle of wine with an alcohol content of 11.5%, multiply the volume of the wine by the percentage converted to decimal (0.115). The calculation gives you 86.25 mL of ethanol.
To calculate the total volume of ethanol in milliliters in a bottle of wine, you can use the percentage of ethanol (vol/vol) that is provided. A 750 mL bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon contains 11.5% ethanol. The volume of ethanol can be calculated by multiplying the total volume of the wine by the percentage of ethanol.
To find the ethanol volume:
- Convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100: 11.5% \/ 100 = 0.115.
- Multiply this decimal by the total volume of the wine: 0.115 \\* 750 mL = 86.25 mL.
Therefore, the bottle contains 86.25 mL of ethanol.
