Question 169030: Calculate the molar mass of aspirin to 0.01 g.
How many moles of aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid, C9H8O4) are present in 10.0 mL of an 0.100 M solution of the drug?

____mol.

Answer by 303795(602)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Molar mass of aspirin = (9 x atomic weight of carbon) + (8 x Atomic weight of hydrogen) + (4 x atomic weight of oxygen)
Using your table of atomic weights you can then find the Molar Mass of Aspirin to the required accuracy.
Moles = Volume(litres) x Molarity
=
=0.00100 moles of aspirin
