Chemistry
1 answer:
netineya [11]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

The most recent Global Burden of

Disease (GBD) study estimates that air pollution – indoor and outdoor combined – was the cause of 5.5 million premature deaths

globally in 2013. Air pollution also has further consequences on human health, leading in particular to an increasing number of

respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. Moreover, it affects crop yields and the environment, with impacts on biodiversity and

ecosystems, amongst others. These impacts have significant economic consequences, which will affect economic growth as well as welfare

Calculate the theoretical yield of aspirin obtained when 2.0 g of salicylic acid and 5.0 mL of acetic anhydride (density = 1.08
saw5 [17]

Answer:

The percent yield would be 73%

Explanation:

The balanced reaction for the obtention of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is the following:

Salicylic acid + acetic anhydride → acetylsalicylic acid + acetic acid

C₇H₆O₃          +          C₄H₆O₃        →         C₉H₈O₄           +    C₂H₄O₂

According to the reaction, 1 mol of salicylic acid reacts with 1 mol of acetic anhydride to give 1 mol of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and 1 mol of acetic acid.

1 mol aspirin (C₉H₈O₄) = (9 x 12 g/mol) + (8 x 1 g/mol) + (4 x 16 g/mol)

                                     = 180 g

1 mol salicylic acid (C₇H₆O₃) = (7 x 12 g/mol) + (6 x 1 g/mol) + (3 x 16 g/mol)

                                              = 138 g

1 mol acetic anhydride (C₄H₆O₃) = (4 x 12 g/mol) + (6 x 1 g/mol) + (3 x 16 g/mol)

                                                      = 102 g

The stoichiometric ratio is = 138 g salicylic acid/102 g acetic anhydride= 1.35

We have:

2.0 g salicylic acid

acetic anhydride = 5.0 mL x 1.08 g/mL = 5.4 g

The reactants ratio is = 2.0 g salicylic acid/5.4 g acetic anhydride = 0.37

0.37 < 1.35 , therefore <em>salicylic acid is the limiting reactant</em>.

Now, we use the amount of salicylic acid to calculate the theoretical amount of aspirin. For this, we know that 1 mol of aspirin (180 g) is obtained from 1 mol of salycilic acid (138 g):

theoretical yield= 180 g aspirin/138 g salycilic acid x 2.0 g salycilic acid = 2.61 g aspirin

actual yield = 1.9 g

Finally, we calculate the yield:

percent yield = actual yield/theoretical yield x 100

        = 1.9 g/2.6 g x 100 = 72.8% ≅ 73%
