- You take 1.00 g of an aspirin tablet (a compound consisting solely of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), burn it in air, and collect 2.20 g CO2 and 0.400 g H2O. You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forwardWrite the balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of adipic acid, an organic acid containing 49.31% C, 6.90% H, and the remainder O, by mass.arrow_forwardMethane (CH4) is the main component of marsh gas.
