C7H6O3(s) + C4H603(1)→ C9H8O4(s) + C2H402(1) A student is asked to prepare 76.71 g of aspirin. She is told that salicylic acid is the limiting reagent and that the reaction typically has a 47.0% yield. She is also told to use a 34.8% excess of acetic anhydride. How many grams of acetic anhydride should she use? Round your final answer to three significant figures.
