As part of the aspirin synthesis lab the orgo students also had to perform the following calculation to demonstrate their knowledge. Are you able to help them work this out? Saponification is a process in which soap is produced from the chemical reaction between animal fat (triglycerides) and a strong base such as KOH. An example of such balanced chemical reaction is shown here: C51H98O6 + 3KOH → C3H5(OH)3 + 3C16H31O2K (Triglyceride) (Soap) if during the saponification reaction 231.5 g of C51H98O6 is mixed with 231.5 g of KOH and 160 g of soap is produced. Calculate the theoretical yield of soap C16H31O2K and indicate who is the limiting reactant. (Provide your answer to 2 decimal places) Calculate the percent yield for this reaction (Provide your answer to 1 decimal place) *Show ALL steps and mathematical equations involved in your calculations to help the orgo students.

A group of students is doing an analysis of copper in a 1-peso coin. They were tasked to prepare standard solutions and weigh the analyte as the end-product of their experiment. What type of error is it and explain how this type of error incurring in their experiment. a. Makisig forgot to calibrate the analytical balance before weighing. b. Only one trial was performed in the experiment. c. One member inadvertently recorded 29.90 mL instead of 19.90 mL volume. d. Marikit had very good precision but poor accuracy in her data.e. Volumetric flasks were placed inside the oven for drying before it was used.f. Trial 1 and 2 have values close to 30.0 mL while trial 3 gave 55.0 mL.g. The reagent used in determining copper was added incorrectly and gave a low yield.
Show complete solution with regards to the correct significant figures. In an experiment involving the extraction of essential oils from a plant, 7.5 mL of benzene (C6H6, 78.11 g/mol) was mixed with 25.00 mL of hexane (C6H14, 86.18 g/mol). Both benzene and hexane are non-polar so they will homogeneously mix. The densities of benzene and hexane are 0.8765 g/mL and 0.6594 g/mL, respectively. D. The prepared benzene-hexane solution in the problem was diluted with 17.5 mL of the solvent. What will be the final concentration of the solution (in M)? E. Five milliliters (5.00 mL) of the diluted solution in item D) was obtained and was further diluted to 20.0 mL. What is the resulting concentration?

A 100 mg vitamin C tablet weighed 1.681 g. A student crushed the tablet and transferred 0.150 g of the crushed powder into a 100 mL volumetric flask, dissolved the powder in ~30 mL DI water, then filled the flask to the calibration line with DI water and mixed well to create Solution 1. The student then transferred 19.82 mL of Solution 1 into a 100 mL volumetric flask and diluted to the calibration line with DI water to create Solution 2. Calculate the expected concentration (in mM) of ascorbic acid in Solution 2. Hint: Remember that you are starting with a 100 mg vitamin C tablet.
