Aspirin can be synthesized in the lab by combining salicylic acid (C₂H603) and acetic anhydride (C₂H₂O3) to form aspirin ( C₂H₂O₂) and acetic acid (C₂H₂O₂). The balanced equation for this reaction is C₂H₂O3 + C₂H₂O3 → C₂H₂O4 + C₂H₂O₂ A student started with 3.14 mL acetic anhydride (density = 1.08 g/mL) and 2.51 g salicylic acid. The student synthesized 2.36 g of aspirin. Select the limiting reactant. aspirin (C,H,O4) acetic acid (C₂H₂O2) salicylic acid (C₂H₂O₂) acetic anhydride (C₂H₂O3) Calculate the theoretical yield of aspirin (C, H₂O4).
