Aspirin can be prepared from salicylic acid (C,HO3), which has a molar mass of 138.12 g/mol, and acetic anhydride (C,H&O3), which has a molar mass of 102.04 g/mol. The density of acetic anhydride is 1.082 g/ml. C,H,O3 + C,H&O3 - C,HsO4+ C2H3O2 What is the yield, in grams, of aspirin (C,H,0,), which has a molar mass of 180.15 g/mol, possible when reacting 2.25 g of salicylic acid with 1.20 mL of acetic anhydride?

Question
Aspirin can be prepared from salicylic acid (C,H,O3), which has a molar mass of 138.12 g/mol, and acetic
anhydride (C,H,O3), which has a molar mass of 102.04 g/mol. The density of acetic anhydride is 1.082 g/ml.
C,HO3+ C,H6 O3
- C,HsO, + C,H3O2
What is the yield, in grams, of aspirin (C,H,04), which has a molar mass of 180.15 g/mol, possible when
reacting 2.25 g of salicylic acid with 1.20 ml of acetic anhydride?
