- Aspirin is prepared by the reaction of salicylic- acid with acetic anhydride as shown in the following equation. The stoichiometry of the reaction is given in the equation. Acetic acid is a by-product of the reaction and must be separated and removed so that aspirin can then be sold as a pure product. How many grams of aspirin can be prepared from 120 grams of salicylic acid? Assume that there is an excess of acetic anhydride.

- Part A: Draw the line-angle formula for methyl propanoate Part B: Draw the product of the reaction of ethylmethylamine with water Part C: Draw the product of the neutralization of ethylmethylamine with HBrarrow_forwardTrue or false The hydroxyl group found in an organic compound is responsible for its basicity. Aromatic hydrocarbons are considered polar and has high affinity to water. Acidic drugs are a class of chemical compounds that normally have high hydrophilicity and negative charges. Amino groups attached to hydrocarbons are considered polar which may be responsible for its solubility. Lipophilic drugs have a faster rate of absorption than hydrophilic drugs.arrow_forwardIf you are given a mixture of three organic compounds (aspirin, β-naphthol, and naphthalene), what procedure would you follow to separate them?arrow_forward

Explain how. 2) The long filaments making up the thread of woven synthetic fabrics are likely polyesters. Describe the special characteristic that the alcohol and carboxylic acid must have so that they can react with each other to produce such long filaments.arrow_forwardDraw the skeletal ("line") structure of the smallest organic molecule that produces potassium 2-methylpropanoate when reacted with KOH.
