Determine the mass of the active ingredient in one pill by using the percentage by mass. The formula to use is: \( \text{mass of active ingredient in one pill} = \text{mass of one pill} \times \frac{\text{percentage of active ingredient}}{100} \).
Substitute the given values into the formula: \( \text{mass of active ingredient in one pill} = 2.5 \text{ g} \times \frac{4.0}{100} \).
Calculate the mass of the active ingredient in one pill using the above expression.
Multiply the mass of the active ingredient in one pill by the number of pills in the bottle to find the total mass of the active ingredient: \( \text{total mass of active ingredient} = \text{mass of active ingredient in one pill} \times 120 \).
Convert the total mass of the active ingredient from grams to kilograms by dividing by 1000: \( \text{mass in kg} = \frac{\text{total mass in g}}{1000} \).
