### Molar Mass and Reaction Calculations

**8. Molar Masses of Salicylic Acid and Acetic Anhydride**

- **Objective:** Find the molar masses of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride, and record the density of acetic anhydride.
  
  - The molar mass of salicylic acid is **138.121 g/mol**.
  - The molar mass of acetic anhydride is **102.09 g/mol**.

**9. Calculating Moles of Reactants**

- **Task:** Calculate the moles of salicylic acid and acetic anhydride used in your reaction. You can write your work on paper, capture a photo of it using your phone, and paste the image into your Electronic lab notebook.
  
  - Moles of Salicylic Acid: **0.00342 mol**
  - Moles of Acetic Anhydride: **0.00004464 mol**

**10. Reaction Production**

- **Statement:** For every one mole of salicylic acid that reacts, one mole of aspirin is produced.
- **Calculation:** Use your answer from question 9 to calculate the number of moles of aspirin that would be produced if all of the salicylic acid reacted.
  
  - Due to the ratio being equal, it would be **0.00342 mol of aspirin**.

**11. Acetic Anhydride Reaction**

- **Statement:** For every one mole of acetic anhydride that reacts, one mole of aspirin is produced.
- **Calculation:** Use your answer from question 9 to calculate the number of moles of aspirin that would be produced if all of the salicylic acid reacted.
