ENTIFICATION: Acetylsalicylic acid commonly known as Aspirin (C9H8O4) is used to treat fever, inflammation, and acts as a blood-thinning agent. A group of STEM students experimented on the synthesis of this compound using recrystallization technique. The following are the initial materials for the experiment: 5.00 g of pure salicylic acid (C7H6O3), 7.14 g of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) and 8 drops concentrated sulfuric acid as catalyst. After successful synthesis, the group was able to collect 5.25 grams of Aspirin (C9H8O4) and acetic acid (C2H4O2). Atomic weights: C= 12 amu; H = 1 amu; O= 16 amu; density acetic anhydride = 1.08 g/mL What is the percentage yield of the experiment?

Stoichiometry

Stoichiometry is a chemical division that evaluates the quantitative content of the chemical process with the help of the reacting molecules or products taking part in the reaction. The term “stoicheion” in “Stoichiometry”, is an old Greek term for "element" whereas “metron” means "measure".
