Calculations to Show • Theoretical yield of aspirin: Theoretical yield= mass salicylic acid used * ( 1 mol C7H6O3 / g C7H6O3 ) * ( 1 mol C9H8O4 / 1 mol C7H6O3 ) ( g C9H8O4 / 1 mol C9H8O4 ) **The molar masses of the salicylic acid and the acetylsalicylic acid will need to be calculated using the periodic table before finding the theoretical yield. % yield of aspirin % yield= actual yield/theoretical yield * 100 The actual yield would be the observed mass of aspirin made in lab.

• Theoretical yield of aspirin:
Theoretical yield=
mass salicylic acid used * ( 1 mol C7H6O3 / g C7H6O3 ) * ( 1 mol C9H8O4 / 1 mol C7H6O3 ) ( g C9H8O4 / 1 mol C9H8O4 )
**The molar masses of the salicylic acid and the acetylsalicylic acid will need to be calculated using the periodic table before finding the theoretical yield.
% yield of aspirin
% yield= actual yield/theoretical yield * 100
The actual yield would be the observed mass of aspirin made in lab.
