In the presence of dry sulfuric acid at 100 degree c, salicylic acid can react with itself to form a water-insoluble precipitate

. how will this side reaction affect the percent yield and purity of the aspirin?

The side reaction will affect the purity and percent yield that, it will decrease the purity and also decrease the present yield.
Due to side reaction, the amount of aspirin which is being produced will be less for some amount of starting material which is used. The present yield will decrease. The insoluble water which is being precipitated is formed as a result of the side-reaction which will remain with aspirin and finally contaminate the aspirin.
The purity of aspirin will also decrease.

Calculate the standard cell potential given the following standard reduction potentials: Al3++3e−→Al;E∘=−1.66 V Cu2++2e−→Cu;E∘=0
Maru [420]

Answer:

Explanation:

To calculate the cell potential we use the relation:

Eº cell = Eº oxidation + Eº reduction

Now in order to determine which of the species is going to be oxidized, we have to remember that the more the value of the reduction potential is negative,  the greater its tendency to be oxidized is. In electrochemistry we use the values of the reductions potential in the tables for simplicity  because the only thing we need to do is change the sign of the reduction potential for the oxized species .

So the species that is going to be oxidized is the Aluminium, and therefore:

Eº cell = -( -1.66 V ) + 0.340 V =  5.06 V

Equally valid is to write the equation as:

Eº cell = Eº reduction for the reduced species - Eº reduction for the oxidized species

These two expressions are equivalent, choose the one you fell more comfortable but be careful with the signs.
