Question

C9H8O4 is synthesized by reacting stoichiometric amounts of C7H6O3 and (CH3CO)2O, as shown by the balanced chemical equation in the picture: 

During the synthesis, 500 grams of salicylic acid was available for use in the experiment. 

Other information:

MW of Salicylic Acid: 138.121 g/mol 

MW of Acetic Anhydride: 102.09 g/mol

Density of Acetic Anhydride: 1/08 g/ml

 

Question: 

The available Acetic anhydride reagent in the lab is in the liquid form. How many mL of Acetic anhydride is needed to react with the available salicylic acid stoichiometirically? 

C7H6O3+ (CH3CO)2O → C9H8O4 + CH3COOH
Transcribed Image Text:C7H6O3+ (CH3CO)2O → C9H8O4 + CH3COOH
