(a)
Interpretation: for the given reaction, the mass of salicylic acid required to produce 0.400g of aspirin, the mass of salicylic acid required to produce 0.400g of aspirin if the 74.9% salicylic acid is converted to aspirin and the percent yield of 10.9g of aspirin if 9.26g of salicylic acid reacts with 8.54g of acetic anhydride are needed to be determined.
Concept introduction:
- Balanced chemical equation of a reaction is written according to law of conservation of mass.
- Equation for Number of moles of a substance, from its given mass is,
- Percent yield of reaction is the ratio of mass of actual yield to the mass of theoretical yield and multiplied with hundred.

- Select all molecules which are chiral. Brarrow_forwardUse the reaction coordinate diagram to answer the below questions. Type your answers into the answer box for each question. (Watch your spelling) Energy A B C D Reaction coordinate E A) Is the reaction step going from D to F endothermic or exothermic? A F G B) Does point D represent a reactant, product, intermediate or transition state? A/ C) Which step (step 1 or step 2) is the rate determining step? Aarrow_forward1. Using radii from Resource section 1 (p.901) and Born-Lande equation, calculate the lattice energy for PbS, which crystallizes in the NaCl structure. Then, use the Born-Haber cycle to obtain the value of lattice energy for PbS. You will need the following data following data: AH Pb(g) = 196 kJ/mol; AHƒ PbS = −98 kJ/mol; electron affinities for S(g)→S¯(g) is -201 kJ/mol; S¯(g) (g) is 640kJ/mol. Ionization energies for Pb are listed in Resource section 2, p.903. Remember that enthalpies of formation are calculated beginning with the elements in their standard states (S8 for sulfur). The formation of S2, AHF: S2 (g) = 535 kJ/mol. Compare the two values, and explain the difference. (8 points)arrow_forward
