The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid.
However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction.
- Get 3 cups of water at the exact same temperature, using the thermometer to check.
- Label the cups as ‘whole’, ‘pieces’, and ‘crushed’
- Next, get something to dissolve, in this case, polident. Take one of the polident tablets and break it into 4 pieces, and set it aside.
- Take another polident tablet and this time put it into a different cup, and crush it. Set it aside.
- Keep the last tablet whole.
- Set up your stopwatch and drop the polident tablet that is whole in the cup labeled ‘whole’, starting the stopwatch at the same time.
- Watch the cup and see when the tablet is fully dissolved, then stop the stopwatch.
- Record the time in the table.
- Repeat steps 6-8 for both the ‘pieces’ and ‘crushed’ tablets.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if you need more help, or if you think my answer is incorrect. Brainliest would be MUCH appreciated. Have a great day!
Stay Brainy!

The color of light that will be diffracted at a greater angle from a diffracting grating is THE YELLOW COLOR.
This is because, the degree of diffraction depend on the wavelength of light and light color with shorter wavelength are diffracted at a larger angle than those with longer wavelengths. The wavelength of the yellow color is much more smaller than that of the red color.
Diffusion is the process of a substance spreading out to evenly fill its container or environment. Kinetic energy of particles of matter increases with an increase in temperature. More the kinetic energy in the particles, more is the rate of diffusion. so diffusion is faster in the summer!
hope this helps!
