Explanation:

Sulfuric acid also known as H_{2}SO_{4} contains two hydrogen atoms, one sulfur atom and four oxygen atoms.

And it is given that the formal charge on a sulfuric acid molecule is zero. So, sulfur atom is bonded with two oxygen atoms through a double bond on each oxygen atom. The sulfur is also attached to another two oxygen atoms through a single bond for each oxygen atom.

Further, the each oxygen with single bond is attached to one hydrogen atom each.

If we are to draw the sulfuric acid structure based on Lewis it would look like:

                       O

                      ll

                O = S – O –H

                       l

                      O

                       l

                       H

 

So from this, we can see that there are 2 double bonds (O = S) and 4 single bonds (S – O and O – H).

 

Therefore the answer is:

4 single, 2 double

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.
