Answer:

53.9%

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

C4H6O3+C7H6O3→C9H8O4+C2H4O2

Number of moles of salicyclic acid reacted = 88.3 g/138.121 g/mol = 0.639 moles

1 mole of salicyclic acid yields 1 mole of aspirin

0.639 moles of salicyclic acid also yields 0.639 moles of asprin

Theoretical yield of asprin = 0.639 moles * 180.158 g/mol

Theoretical yield of asprin = 115.12 g

Percent yield = Actual yield/Theoretical yield * 100/1

Percent yield = 62.0 g/115.12 g * 100

Percent yield = 53.9%
