Additional data:
- salicylic acid (MW 138,121 g / mol)
- acetic anhydride (PM = 102.09 g / mol; d = 1.08 g / mL)
- acetylsalicylic acid (PM = 180.16g / mol)

Mass of salicylic acid used (g) 2.015 g
Volume of acetic anhydride used (mL) 5.00 ml
Mass of acetic anhydride used (d = 1.08 g / ml) 5.40 g
Aspirin mass and paper filter (g) 0.678g
Paper filter mass (g) 0.132g
Synthesized aspirin mass (g)  
Theoretical percent (g)  
Yield percent (%)  
Percent error (%)
