Concept explainers

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is a chemical division that evaluates the quantitative content of the chemical process with the help of the reacting molecules or products taking part in the reaction. The term “stoicheion” in “Stoichiometry”, is an old Greek term for "element" whereas “metron” means "measure".

Aspirin is a pain reliever, anti-inflammatory, and fever reducer produced from acetic acid and salicylic acid (138.121 g/mol). The latter acid can be generated from methyl salicylate (152.1494 g/mol) or "oil of wintergreen" by a sequence of chemical processes beginning with a hydrolysis reaction. To assess the yield of the hydrolysis reaction, the product was potentiometrically titrated. For the process, sodium hydroxide (NaOH) was utilized as the titrant. Three standardization attempts with KHP resulted in a titrant concentration of 0.0459 M.
