Answer: The mass of intravenous glucose solution is 2300 g

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the mass of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}$

Volume of glucose solution = 2.00 L = 2000 mL (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Density of glucose solution = 1.15 g/mL

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$1.15g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of glucose solution}}{2000mL}\\\\\text{Mass of glucose solution}=2300g$

Hence, the mass of intravenous glucose solution is 2300 g
