    Lab Report Synthesis and Characterization of Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid) The Synthesis and Characterization of Aspirin (Acetylsalicylic Acid). Summary: In this experiment‚ we produced 4.21 g of acetylsalicylic acid. Our theoretical yield was calculated to be 5.22 g. Therefore our % yield was determined to be 80.6%. The experimental boiling point range of acetylsalicylic acid was found to be 130-132° C. The true melting point of acetylsalicylic acid is 135° C‚ therefore our percent

    synthesize and purify aspirin. The theoretical yield was calculated to 3.766g. The actual yield of pure aspirin was 2.863g with a yield of 76%. The percent yield indicates that our synthesis was a success but the yield is low and indicates that some of the aspirin was lost during synthesis. Some reasons for loss can result from human error such as loosing product from sticking on the spatula and the Buchner funnel and several weighings. Also‚ when transferring the crude aspirin into the vacuum filtration
