If you react 4.3 ml of ethanol with 7 drops of sulfuric acid and 0.227 g of salicylic acid, what is the theoretical yield of ethyl salicylate in grams (g)? The molecular weight of salicylic acid is 138.12 g/mol, the molecular weight of ethyl salicylate is 166.17 g/mol. The molecular weight of ethanol is 46.069 g/mol and its density is 0.789 g/mL. The molarity of sulfuric acid is 18 mol/L
