Asprin, c9h804, is produced through the following reaction of salicyclic acid, c7h6o3, and acetic anhydride, c4h6o3.

chemical equation:
c7h6o3 + c4h6o3 yields c9h8o4 + hc2h3o2 (all numbers in this equation are subscripts)
At 20 degrees Celsius. how many liters of acetic acid, hc2h3o2, would form? the density of acetic acid is 1.05grams/cubic centimeter

thank you in advance!

The yield depends on the quantity reacted, which is not stated.

To determine the number of liters of acetic acid (HC2H3O2) that would form during the reaction, we need to follow these steps:

1. Convert the given density of acetic acid from grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm^3) to grams per liter (g/L).
Density of acetic acid = 1.05 g/cm^3

Conversion factor: 1 cm^3 = 1 mL and 1 L = 1000 mL
Density in g/L = Density in g/cm^3 * (1 L / 1000 mL) = 1.05 g/cm^3 * (1 L / 1000 mL) = 1.05 g/L

Therefore, the density of acetic acid is 1.05 grams per liter.

2. Next, we need to determine the molar ratio between acetic acid (HC2H3O2) and salicylic acid (C7H6O3) as per the balanced chemical equation:
C7H6O3 + C4H6O3 → C9H8O4 + HC2H3O2

From the equation, we can see that the molar ratio of acetic acid to salicylic acid is 1:1 (coefficients in front of HC2H3O2 and C7H6O3 are both 1).

3. Calculate the molar mass of acetic acid (HC2H3O2):
Molar mass = (2 * 1.008) + 12.01 + (3 * 1.008) + 16 = 60.052 g/mol

4. Determine the number of moles of salicylic acid (C7H6O3) by using the given information and the molar mass of salicylic acid:
Given mass of salicylic acid = Not provided

Without the mass of salicylic acid or any other information about the quantity reacted, it would not be possible to calculate the number of moles or liters of acetic acid formed during the reaction accurately.

Therefore, without additional information, it is not possible to determine the number of liters of acetic acid that would form during the reaction at 20 degrees Celsius.
