% Error Calculation

The percent error is defined mathematically by equation:

% error = |accepted value - experimental value| / accepted value * 100

Given that the accepted value for the density of ethanol is 0.79 g/mL, calculate the % error in your result. Show work here and report your answer with proper number of significant figures.
