The technicians knew that the liquid was either acetone, benzene, chloroform or carbon tetrachloride (which have densities of 0.792 g/ cm³, 0.899 g/ cm³, 1.489 g/ cm³, and 1.595 g/ cm³, respectively). What was the identity of the liquid?
Options
A.Carbon tetrachloride
B.Acetone
C.Chloroform
D.Benzene
