What is the theoretical yield of vanillyl alcohol if we started with 5g of vanillin and ended up with 0.6141g?
Added by Mallory R.
Step 1
First, we need to find the molecular weight of vanillin and vanillyl alcohol. Vanillin: C_8H_8O_3 Molecular weight = (8 x 12.01) + (8 x 1.01) + (3 x 16.00) = 152.15 g/mol Vanillyl alcohol: C_8H_10O_3 Molecular weight = (8 x 12.01) + (10 x 1.01) + (3 x 16.00) = Show more…
