Assume 81% of yield for each step of a 6-step synthesis. Calculate the overall yield
Aspirin can be made in the laboratory by reacting
acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) with salicylic acid
(C7H6O3) to form aspirin (C9 H8O4) and acetic
acid (C₂H4O₂). The balanced equation is
C4H6O3 + C7H6O3 → C9H8O4 + C₂H4O2
In a laboratory synthesis, a student begins with 5.96
mL of acetic anhydride (density = 1.08 g/ml)
and 2.23 g of salicylic acid. Once the reaction is
complete, the student collects 1.76 g of aspirin.
Determine the limiting reactant for the reaction.

The importance of calculating the %yield
of reactions is to assess how successful a
reaction is if the efficiency level is 100%
True, this determines the accuracy of
the reaction.
False, the %yield is calculated on the
basis of less than 100% efficiency
True, the reaction is more successful
with a lesser %yield
False, a reaction cannot be measured by
%yield

- Ammonia (Hydrogen Nitride) is harmful to our cells (no duh right?) but our body naturally makes a little bit of this chemical through its natural processes. In order to get rid of this poisonous substance, our cells secrete ammonia into the blood stream to be combined with carbon dioxide. In this process, urea (CN2OH4) and water is made.
