The limiting reactant is salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃).
Explanation:
We have the following chemical reaction where salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) reacts with acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃) to form acetylsalicylic acid (C₉H₈O₄) and acetic acid (C₂H₄O₂):
C₇H₆O₃ + C₄H₆O₃ → C₉H₈O₄ + C₂H₄O₂
We have started with 70.0 g of salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) and 80.0 g acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃).
First we calculate the number of moles of each reactant:
number of moles = mass / molar weight
number of moles of salicylic acid = 70 / 138 = 0.507 moles
number of moles of acetic anhydride = 80 / 102 = 0.784 moles
We see from the chemical reaction that 1 mole of acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃) reacts with 1 mole of salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) so 0.784 moles of acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃) will react with 0.784 mole of salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) but we only have 0.507 moles of salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃). The limiting reactant is salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃).

Answer:
B. adding heat to the system and having the system do work on the surroundings
Explanation:
The internal energy of a system is the energy contained within the system. From first law of thermodynamics we have the equation : dq=du+dw
and we know that energy can neither be created nor destroyed; energy can only be transferred or changed from one form to another therefore du is zero. dq = dw this means that the entire heat supplied is converted into work (on the surroundings)
However, some of the heat supplied is also used to increase the internal energy of the system
The answer is A
