    you have a million.50 kg of glucose a million. convert to grams 1500g glucose now you opt to transform glucose to mol 1500g glucose ( a million mol glucose / 180g glucose) = 8.33 mol glucose now you opt to establish a molar ratio 8.33 mol glucose (2 mol ethanol / a million mol glucose) you at the instant have the quantity of mols of ethanol that's sixteen.sixty six mol ethanol now you opt to transform to grams sixteen.sixty six mol ethanol ( 46g ethanol / a million mol ethanol) 766.36g ethanol produced Density = mass / quantity density of ethanol = .789 g/mL .789 = 766.36 / x .789x = 766.36 quantity in mL = 971.305 quantity in L = .097 L
