Final Answer: The mass of the chain is \(\boxed{1728.0 \, \text{kg}}\).

Steps

Step 1 :Given that the length of the chain is 8.0 m and the weight per meter is 216 kg/m.

Step 2 :We can calculate the mass of the chain by multiplying the length of the chain by the weight per meter.

Step 3 :Using the formula \(\text{mass} = \text{length} \times \text{weight per meter}\), we substitute the given values.

Step 4 :So, \(\text{mass} = 8.0 \, \text{m} \times 216 \, \text{kg/m}\)

Step 5 :Final Answer: The mass of the chain is \(\boxed{1728.0 \, \text{kg}}\).
