Aspirin (C9H8O4) is synthesized by reacting salicylic acid (C7H6O3) with acetic anhydride (C4H6O3). The balanced equation isC7H6
prisoha [69]

<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For a:</u> The mass of acetic anhydride needed is 73.91 grams.

<u>For b:</u> The theoretical yield of aspirin is 130.43 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}   .....(1)

  • <u>For a:</u>

Given mass of salicylic acid = 1.00\times 10^2g=100g

Molar mass of salicylic acid = 138.121 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of salicylic acid}=\frac{100g}{138.121g/mol}=0.724mol

For the given chemical reaction:

C_7H_6O_3+C_4H_6O_3\rightarrow C_9H_8O_4+CH_3COOH

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid reacts with 1 mole of acetic anhydride.

So, 0.724 moles of salicylic acid will react with = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.724=0.724mol of acetic anhydride.

Now, to calculate the mass of acetic anhydride, we use equation 1:

Moles of acetic anhydride = 0.724 moles

Molar mass of acetic anhydride = 102.09 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.724mol=\frac{\text{Mass of acetic anhydride}}{102.09g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of acetic anhydride}=73.91g

Hence, the mass of acetic anhydride needed is 73.91 grams.

  • <u>For b:</u>

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of salicylic acid is producing 1 mole of aspirin.

So, 0.724 moles of salicylic acid will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.724=0.724mol of aspirin.

Now, to calculate the mass of aspirin, we use equation 1:

Moles of aspirin = 0.724 moles

Molar mass of aspirin = 180.158 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.724mol=\frac{\text{Mass of aspirin}}{180.158g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of aspirin}=130.43g

Hence, the theoretical yield of aspirin is 130.43 grams.

I need chemistry help! How would I set up these problems?
Bond [772]

Answer: -

1) 8.33 minutes

2) 118.39 in/ s

180.43 m/min

10.83 km/ hr

Explanation: -

Speed of light = 3 x 10⁸ m/s

Distance of the earth from the sun= 93 million miles

We know 1 million = 1,000,000

Also 1 mile = 1609 m

Distance of the earth from the sun= 93 million miles

= 93,000,000 miles.

= 1.5 x 10^{11} m

Time taken = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

= \frac{1.5 x [tex] 10^{11} m}{3 x 10⁸ m/s} [/tex]

= 500 s

= 500/ 60

= 8.33 minutes

2) Distance = 1 mile = 63360 inches

Time taken = 8.92 min

= 8.92 x 60

= 535.2 s

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

= \frac{63360 inches}{535.2 s}

= 118.39 in/ s

Distance = 1 mile = 63360 inches = 63360 x 2.54 cm = 63360 x 2.54 x 10^{-2} m

Time taken = 8.92 min

Speed = \frac{distance}{time}

= \frac{63360 x 2.54 x [tex] 10^{-2} m}{8.92 min} [/tex]

= 180.43 m/ min

1 m = 10⁻³ Km

1 min = 1/60 hour

1 m /min = 10⁻³ km/ \frac{1}{60 hour}

= 60/1000

=0.06 km/hr

180.43 m / min = 180 x 0.06 km / hr

= 10.93 km / hr

Find the pH of a 0.100 molar H2C6O6 solution with ka, where KA is equal 8.0×10–5​
lubasha [3.4K]

The pH of the solution is 2.54.

Explanation:

pH is the measure of acidity of the solution and Ka is the dissociation constant. Dissociation constant is the measure of concentration of hydrogen ion donated to the solution.

The solution of C₆H₂O₆ will get dissociated as C₆HO₆ and H+ ions. So the molar concentration of 0.1 M is present at the initial stage. Lets consider that the concentration of hydrogen ion released as x and the same amount of the base ion will also be released.

So the dissociation constant Kₐ can be written as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants. As the concentration of reactants is given as 0.1 M and the concentration of products is considered as x for both hydrogen and base ion. Then the

K_{a}=\frac{[H^{+}][HB] }{[reactant]}

[HB] is the concentration of base.

8 * 10^{-5} =\frac{x^{2}  }{0.1}\\\\\\x^{2} = 8 * 10^{-5}*0.1

x^{2} = 0.08 * 10^{-4}\\ \\x = 0.283*10^{-2}

Then

pH = - log [x] = - log [ 0.283 * 10^{-2}]\\ \\pH = 2 + 0.548 = 2.54

So the pH of the solution is 2.54.
