Organic Chemistry As a Second Language: Second Semester Topics, Chapter 6.9, Problem 6.81P , additional homework tip  1

Concept Introduction:

Wittig Reaction: It is an organic reaction where an aldehyde or a ketone gets converted to an alkene by replacing carbonyl group by a C=C bond. A phosphorous ylide is used for this conversion. It is a neutral molecule where a positively charged phosphorous is attached to a negatively charged carbon atom.

Hello, I hope you are doing well on this fine day. For the following quetion please read carefully the question and instruction. PLEASE ANSWER QUESTION IN 20 MINTUES NOT MORE PLEASE AND THANK YOU. If you do answer the question correctly and post it in the next 15 minutes, NO NEED TO SHOW THE WORK, I JUST WOULD LIKE THE CORRECT ANSWER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I will write a wonderful and generous feedback/review/rating about you.  If you react 1.0 ml of ethanol with 6 drops of sulfuric acid and 5.281 g of salicylic acid, what is the % yield of the reaction if you synthesized 0.659 g of pure ethyl salicylate? The molecular weight of salicylic acid is 138.12 g/mol, the molecular weight of ethyl salicylate is 166.17 g/mol. The molecular weight of ethanol is 46.069 g/mol and its density is 0.789 g/mL. The molarity of sulfuric acid is 18 mol/L
Hi there, can someone please help me solve this problem? Please make sure to clarify all steps taken to go about solving for the products and explain various terms and rules that should be known or correlate with the question. I'm using these questions to study for our final exam and need some extra clarification on rules and steps. Thank you very much in advance!
