What is the mass of Carbon (C) in milligrams found in 325 mg of aspirin (C9H8O4)?

Solutions

Expert Solution

Mass of aspirin = C9H8O4 = 325 mg = 0.325 g

molar mass of aspirin = 180.16 g/mole

molar mass of Carbon = 12.0 g/mole

mass of carbon present in 180.16 grams of aspirin = 9x12.0 = 108.0 grams

mass of carbon present in 0.325 grams of aspirin = ?

= 108.0x0.325/180.16 = 0.195 grams

mass of carbon present in 0.325 grams of aspirin = 0.195 grams

mass of carbon presetn in 325 mg of aspirin = 0.195x1000 = 195 mg

mass of carbon = 195 mg.
