Stoichiometry: Prolonged exposure of some functionalities to the cluent (methanol) in this experiment may lead to undesirable reactions. In one case, Acetylsalicylic acid (Aspirin) can react with methanol to form salicylic acid and methyl acetate. If 800 mg of Acetylsalicylic acid and 1 mL of Methanol undergoes such a side reaction (known as "Methanolysis") to completion: (a) write a balanced equation (draw all molecules instead of writing chemical formulas), (b) what is the limiting reagent? (c) predict the grams of salicylic acid and methyl acetate to be produced in this process. Show calculations. Hint: you can determine the grams of I mL of Methanol through its density.

You are employed as a coop student at the Drug and Alcohol Testing Association of Canada (DATAC) developing analytical tests for sports doping agents. You are asked to prepare a procedure for the extraction of methylphenidate, the active compound in Ritalin, from urine samples (consider them as simple aqueous layers, you do not need to consider other components!). The goal of the procedure is to extract the methylphenidate into an organic layer which will then be evaporated, and the residue will be tested for the drug.Your colleague is helping you develop the urine test. They suggest that the urine should be adjusted to a pH above 7 before extracting with the organic solvent. Why is this necessary? Support your explanation with a full arrow-pushing mechanism for the reaction that would occur if the pH was below 7. Include all formal charges, intermediates (if applicable) and products.

You are tasked with performing a recrystallization. You have 3 potential solvents to use, but you don't know which one will work. How will you go about deciding which solvent to use?
The NaOH titrant in this experiment was prepared to be approximately 0.1 M and then was standardized to determine its exact concentration. What possible reasons could there be for not simply weighing the solid NaOH, dissolving to a known volume and calculating its molarity?
you weigh your crude sample (1.538 g) and recrystallize with hot isopropanol. How do you know how much isopropanol to add?
Suppose you are recrystallizing a compound and boil the solution for so long that a substantial amount of liquid evaporates. What is likely to happen to some of the solute? What should you do if this occurs?
How would each of the following errors affect the experimental value of your molarity of acetic? Would your Molarity value be too high, too low, or unaffected? Explain your answer. if you titrated your acid sample to a bright pink rather than faint pink endpoint? if your "acetic acid" burette was still wet inside with deionized water when you filled it with acetic acid? if you recorded the final volume of NaOH as "39.88 mL" instead of "38.88 mL"?
