Answer:

Percent yield = 114.5%

Explanation:

Given data:

Calculated amount of product/ theoretical yield = 55 g

Actual amount of product after performing reaction = 63 g

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Formula:

Percent yield = ( actual yield / theoretical yield )× 100

by putting values,

Percent yield = (63 g/ 55 g)× 100

Percent yield = 114.5%

Aspirin can be prepared from salicylic acid ( C 7 H 6 O 3 CX7HX6OX3), which has a molar mass of 138.12 g/mol, and acetic anhydri

pychu [463]

Answer: The theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$ $\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{3.20g}{138.12g/mol}=0.023moles$

mass of acetic anhydride = $density\times volume =1.082g/ml\times 3.71ml=4.01g$

$\text{Moles of acetic anhydride}=\frac{4.01g}{102.04g/mol}=0.039moles$

$C_9H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_3O_2$

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of salycylic acid require 1 mole of acetic anhydride

Thus 0.023 moles of salycylic acid require= $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles$ 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 = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.023=0.023moles$ of aspirin

Mass of aspirin = $moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.023moles\times 180.15g/mol=4.14g$

Thus theoretical yield of aspirin is 4.14 g

What is heat energy in science

Ket [755]

Answer:

Heat energy is the result of the movement of tiny particles called atoms, molecules or ions in solids, liquids and gases. Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. the transfer or flow from one object to another is called heat.
