A student performed the synthesis of aspirin and started with 3.96 g of salicylic acid. The reactions is listed below. The molar masses of C, O and H are 12.01 g/mol, 16.00 g/mol and 1.01 g/mol, respectively. (CH3 CO)₂0 (1) + HOC, H, COOH (s) → CH3 CO₂ C6H4 CO₂ H (s) + CH3 COOH (1) Calculate the theoretical yield for this reaction.
