Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) is produced from the reaction of Salicylic acid with acetic anhydride as follows a) Calculate the mass of aspirin produced when \( 5.00 \mathrm{~g} \) of salicylic acid react with \( 5.00 \mathrm{~g} \) of acetic antrydride b) Which is the limiting reactant, salicylic acid or acetic anhydride? c) Calculate the percent yield of the reaction if the experimenter actually isolated \( 4.50 \mathrm{~g} \) of aspirin of
