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.

sladkih [1.3K]
Moles of P = 56,4g/30,974g/mole = 1,82 moles P
moles of O = 43,6/15,999 = 2,73 moles of O

converting to the simplest ratio:
For P : 1,82/1,82 = 1
For O : 2,73/1,82 = 1,5

1 P and 2 oxygens.
PO2 -> the empirical formula

hope this help

It takes 2,500,00 Liters of Helium to fill the Goodyear Blimp. How many moles is this?
Valentin [98]

Answer:

102.26 moles of helium were required to Fill the Goodyear Blimp

Explanation:

To solve this question we need to use combined gas law:

PV = nRT

<em>Where P is pressure, V is volume of gas (2500L), n are moles of gas (Our incognite), R is gas constant (0.082atmL/molK) and T is absolute temperature</em>

<em />

Assuming atmospheric condition we can write P = 1atm and T = 25°C = 298.15K

Replacing:

PV/RT = n

1atm*2500L / 0.082atmL/molK*298.15K = n
