Answer: The theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g
Explanation:
To calculate the moles :
mass of acetic anhydride =
According to stoichiometry :
1 mole of salycylic acid require 1 mole of acetic anhydride
Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid require=
of acetic anhydride
Thus salycylic acid is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and acetic anhydride is the excess reagent.
As 1 mole of salycylic give = 1 mole of aspirin
Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid give =
of aspirin
Mass of aspirin =
Thus theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g
Well it's an alkali metal if that's what you're asking<span />
Hmmmm i understand but i wanna know what to measure or whats about?
If 1mol ------- is ----------- 6,02×10²³
so x ------- is ----------- 1,39×10²⁴
