Answer:
a) the minimun of acetic anhydride required for the reaction is 2.175 g (CH3CO)2O
b) V acetic anhydride = 2.010 mL
Explanation:
C6H4OHCOOH + (CH3CO)2O ↔ C9H8O4 + C2H4O2
⇒ mol salicylic acid = 2.94 g C6H4OHCOOH * ( mol C6H4OHCOOH / 138.121 g ) = 0.0213 mol C6H4OHCOOH
⇒ mol acetic anhydride = 0.0213 mol C6H4OHCOOH * ( mol (CH3CO)2O / mol C6H4OHCOOH ) = 0.0213 mol (CHECO)2O
⇒ g acetic anhydride = 0.0213 mol * ( 102.1 g/mol ) = 2.175 g CH3CO)2O
b) V = 2.175 g (CH3CO)2 * ( mL / 1.082 g ) = 2.010 mL (CH3CO)2O
I assume about 5 atoms are in one molecule of this product
Their weights could be different.
Their volumes could be different.
Their densities could be different.
The volume for an ounce of lead is much different than an ounce of aluminum.
the weight of a cubic meter of balsa wood is much different (and much lighter) than a cubic meter of water. That's why the ancients used balsa for their rafts.
The answer is A hope this help
