QUESTION

Aspirin can be made in the laboratory by reacting acetic anhydride (C 4 H 6 O 3 ) with salicylic acid (C 7 H 6 O 3 ) to form aspirin (C 9 H 8 O 4 )...

Aspirin can be made in the laboratory by reacting acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) with salicylic acid (C7H6O3) to form aspirin (C9H8O4) and acetic acid (C2H4O2). The balanced equation is: C4H6O3+C7H6O3→C9H8O4+C2H4O2

In a laboratory synthesis, a student begins with 5.00 mL of acetic anhydride (density = 1.08 g / mL) and 2.08 g of salicylic acid. Once the reaction is complete, the student collects 2.44 g of aspirin

1) The limiting reactant for the reaction?

2) The theoretical yield of aspirin for the reaction?

3) The percent yield for the reaction?
