ok i tried to calculate the synthesis of aspirin but im completely lost on this lab question i tried to use this equation
mass(g)salycicacid(1molsalycicacid/138gsalycicacid)(1molacatylsalylicacid/1molsalycicacid(180gacetylsalycicacid/1molacetylsalicicacid)
but now i have to calaculate how many millimoles of each of the following
salycic acid
acetic anyhydride
and sulfuric acid (1 drop =.05 mL)
and what is the limiting reagant
are in the reaction using 1.636 grams of salycic acid
