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

de ( C 4 H 6 O 3 CX4HX6OX3), which has a molar mass of 102.04 g/mol. The density of acetic anhydride is 1.082 g/mL. C 7 H 6 O 3 + C 4 H 6 O 3 ⟶ C 9 H 8 O 4 + C 2 H 3 O 2 CX7HX6OX3+CX4HX6OX3⟶CX9HX8OX4+CX2HX3OX2 What is the theoretical yield, in grams, of aspirin ( C 9 H 8 O 4 CX9HX8OX4), which has a molar mass of 180.15 g/mol, possible when reacting 3.20 g of salicylic acid with 3.71 mL of acetic anhydride?

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

The value of the entropy change for the process N₂ (g) + 3H₂ (g) --&gt; 2NH₃ (g) is ________.
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

negative

Explanation:

Entropy is a measure of the "disorder" in a system.

In this reaction, the amount of disorder decreases. This is because one gas molecule (NH₃) has more order than two gas molecules (N₂ and H₂). Therefore, the entropy change should be negative.

An increase in the atomic number________the atomic radius moving from left to right across a period.
frez [133]

Answer:

decrease

Explanation:

Atomic radius :

It is the distance from the center of nucleus to the outer most electronic shell.

Trend along period:

As we move from left to right across the periodic table the number of valance electrons in an atom increase. The atomic size tend to decrease in same period of periodic table because the electrons are added with in the same shell. When the electron are added, at the same time protons are also added in the nucleus. The positive charge is going to increase and this charge is greater in effect than the charge of electrons. This effect lead to the greater nuclear attraction. The electrons are pull towards the nucleus and valance shell get closer to the nucleus. As a result of this greater nuclear attraction atomic radius decreases and ionization energy increases because it is very difficult to remove the electron from atom and more energy is required
