How much salicylic acid is required to produce 190 kg of aspirin, assuming that all of the salicylic acid is converted to aspirin?
Answer:
We won't go deep into the mechanism unnecessarily
1 mole of salicylic acid will produce 1 mole of aspirin
Molar mass of salicylic acid = 138.122 grams per mole
Molar mass of aspirin = 180.158 grams per mole
so it means 138.122 grams of salicylic acid react to form 180.158 grams of aspirin
So amount of salicylic acid required to produce 19 kg (19000 grams) of aspirin is = (19000 x 138.122)/180.158 = 14566.758 grams = 14.566 kg of salicylic acid

How much salicylic acid (the limiting reagent in the synthesis) is need to produce 500 g of aspirin? Mw aspirin is 180.158 g/mol Mw salicylic acid is 138.12 g/mol a.) 38.333 b.) 383.33 c.) 3.833 d.) 0.3833
If 1.09 grams of salicylic acid is used to produce aspirin, what is the theoretical mass of the aspirin that should be produced?
QUESTION 3 Salicylic acid reacts with acetic anhydride to form aspirin and acetic acid as shown. Use the equation to answer Questions 3 – 6. (salicylic acid) (aspirin) C7H6O3 (s) + C4H6O3 (l) → C9H8O4 (s) + CH3COOH (l) MM = 138 MM = 180 If we divide 180 by 138 we find that 1.00 g salicylic acid will produce a maximum of 1.30 g aspirin. 3. A student starts with 3.20 g salicylic acid. What is the maximum amount...
Aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) may be formed from salicylic acid and acetic acid as follows: 13a How many g of aspirin may be produced from 6.94 × 102 mol salicylic acid
Mass of salicylic acid recovered= 11.495g Used 1.410g of salicylic acid when synthesizing aspirin. Mass of acetylsalicylic acid(aspirin) recovered= 2.365g Discuss your yields, % yield of salicylic acid and aspirin. The reaction is the synthesis of salicylic acid from oil wintergreen, and then using the salicylic acid to synthesize aspirin. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE
Though salicylic acid is the physiologically active chemical ingredient in aspirin, consumer aspirin formulations are actually sold as a “derivatized” form of salicylic acid known as acetylsalicylic acid. Describe in detail the chemistry by which this aspirin formulation is synthesized and explain why we don’t just ingest aspirin composed of salicylic acid. After all, humans have been chewing on and making teas of willow bark to get the benefits of salicylic acid for thousands of years. What is the rationale?...
Propose a structure for the polymer formed by intermolecular reaction of salicylic acid during the synthesis of aspirin. Which is the stronger acid, aspirin or salicylic acid?
When aspirin is hydrolyzed, what are the products? a.) salicylic acid and ethanol b.) salicylic acid and ethanal c.) salicylic acid and ethanoic acid d.) ethanol and acetic acid
Synthesis of Aspirin Mass of salicylic acid 2.0024 g Mass of synthesized aspirin 2.5125 g Calculate the theoretical mass and percent yield using the following (fill in missing information): (mass of salicylic acid)2.0024 1 mol salicylic acid 1 mol aspirin (MW of aspirin) = Enter answer (MW of salicylic acid) 1 mol salicylic acid 1 mol aspirin (mass of synthesized aspirin)2.5124 x 100% = Enter answer (theoretical mass of aspirin) Excluding lab error and excess water, is it possible to...
When old aspirin breaks down salicylic acid is formed. What functional group does salicylic acid have that aspirin does not? -OH Opera Olaondo acid catalyst + some stuff -©—OH 0-C-CH3 + CH3—C—OH acetic acid OH aspirin Salicylic acid
