A student measures out exactly 0.0970 g of salicylic acid and carries out an aspirin synthesis using salicylic acid, acetic anhydride, heat, and an acid catalyst. Salicylic acid is the limiting reagent in this reaction, which yields 0.1030 g of aspirin. What is the percent yield for the reaction?

Respuesta :

Answer: 106.19%

Explanation:

percent yield = actual/theo * 100%

our theoretical yield is the limiting reagent and then we have our actual given

.1030/.0970* 100% = 106.19%
