Question

If your Aspirin™ tablet is said to contain 5.00 grains of the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) called acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) what is the mass of ASA would you expect to isolate? (n.b. 1 grain = 64.8 mg). Briefly explain your reasoning. What is the percent isolation of the active ingredient, ASA from your Aspirin™ tablet? Provide your %-isolation calculation (you may use the "launch math editor" tool to illustrate your calculation clearly, or type it all on one line). (Note: percent isolation is mg of ASA recovered / manufacturer mg stipulated • 100) , Be aware of significant figures and know that %-isolation and %-yields are not reported with decimal points, i.e., not past the "ones place." Weight of tablet = 2grams Weight of ASA recovered or isolated = 100mg. Please answer those 2 its not graded thanks
