Aspirin is produced by the reaction of salicylic acid (C7H6O3 . M = 138.1 g/mol) and acetic anhydride(C4H6O3, M = 102.1 g/mol).
C7H6O3(s) + C4H6O3(l) → C9H8O4(s) + C2H4O2(l)
If 2.04 g of C9H8O4 (M = 180.2 g/mol) is produced from the reaction of 3.00 g C7H6O3 and 5.40 g C4H6O3, what is the percent yield?

Carbon monoxide at 25C and saturated steam at 150C are fed to a continuous water-shift reactor. The product gas, which contains 40.0 mole% H2, 40.0 mole% CO2 and the rest H2O(v) emerges at 500C at a rate of 3.5 SCMH, and goes to a condensor, where all of the H2O is condensed. The gas and liquid streams leaving the condensor are at equilibrium at 15C and 1 atm. The liquid leaving the condensor can be assumed to be pure water (no dissolved gases).
a) Calculate the % excess steam fed to the reactor and rate of condensation of the water (kg/h).
b) Calculate the rate (kW) at which heat must be removed from the condensor.
c) Taking atomic species at 25C as references, prepare and fill in an inlet-outlet enthaply table and calculate the required heat rate of heat transfer (kW) to or from the reactor.

A student ran two separate substitution reactions, Reaction A and Reaction B, in lab that utilized an alkyl halide and a nucleophile. However, he did not know if the reactions proceeded through an SN1 or SN2 mechanism. To determine the mechanism for both reactions, the student increased the concentration of the nucleophile in Reactions A and B. The rate of reaction for Reaction A increased. The rate of reaction for Reaction B remained the same.
(a) Which reaction is the SN1 reaction? (1 pt)
(b) Which reaction is the SN2 reaction? (1 pt)
(c) Explain both of your choices. (4 pts)

The combustion of liquid ethanol (C2H5OH) produces carbon dioxide and water. After 4.61 mL of ethanol (density=0.789g/ml) was allowed to burn in the presence of 15.70 g of oxygen gas, 3.71 mL of water (density=1.00g/ml) was collected. Determine the theoretical yield of H2O for the reaction. Determine the percent yield of H2O for the reaction.

Determination of an Equilibrium Constant
1. What is meant by a reversible reaction?
2. True or False : The
numerical value of the equilibrium constant for
a given reaction only changes
if the temperature
changes.
3. Which component of the reaction mixture was it
that was titrated with
sodium hydroxide?
A. Acetic acid B. Isopropyl alcohol
C. Water D. Phenolphthalein
4. Why was it necessary to wrap your rubber stopper in plastic wrap?
5. Why was it necessary to titrate a blank sample
solution, that is, a sample
of distilled water which contain only sulfuric
acid?
6. List two advantages of using a buret for measuring
reaction volumes as
opposed to maybe a graduated cylinder. (Precision and accuracy are
not exceptable answers)
7. What is a catalyst and how and why was a catalyst
needed in this
experiment?
8. When would you want to use a pipet instead of a
buret in an experiment?
