Chapter 3, Problem 71E
(a) Define the terms limiting reactant and excess reactant.
(b) Why are the amounts of products formed in a reaction determined only by the amount of the limiting reactant?
(c) Why should you base your choice of which compound is the limiting reactant on its number of initial moles, not on its initial mass in grams?

You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forward
