During a lab preparation of aspirin, a student used 0.98 g of salicylic acid and an excess amount of acetic anhydride for the reaction and obtained 0.65 g of product aspirin. What is the percentage yield of aspirin obtained by the student? (molar mass of salicylic acid= 138.12g/mol and molar mak of aspirin = 180.16g/mol) O 68.4 O 66.3 O 45.2 O 50.8
