Acetaminophen, a popular drug taken as pain reliever and fever reducer, is produced together with acetic acid from the reaction of 3.05 g 4-aminophenol and 4.1 ml of acetic anhydride. Acetaminophen was extracted at 60% yield. Density of acetic anhydride at 20 C, 1.08 g/ml. Calculate the actual no. of grams of acetaminophen produced. [Determine L.R., E.R.]
