calculate the percent of your sample lost during recrystallization? if pure aspirin costs 0.0861 cents/mg, how much money was lost through the recrystallization process?

Sagot :

The money lost through the recrystallization process [tex]= 196.2 \times 10^9=196.2[/tex] billion

As per the data given in the question,

Mass of aspirin formed =1.366 g

Mass of recrystallized aspirin =0.209 g

Loss of mass of aspirin during recrystallization =1.366-0.209 g=1.157 g

Per cent loss [tex]=\frac{1.157}{1.366} \times 100=84.7 \%[/tex]

Cost of 1 mg aspirin =0.0861 cents

cost of 1.157 g or 1157 mg aspirin [tex]=0.0861 \times 1157=99.6177[/tex] cent =1 (approximately)

41000 metric tons of aspirin [tex]=41000 \times 100 kg=41000 \times 1000 \times 1000 g=41 \times 10^9g[/tex]

Loss during production of [tex]0.209 g[/tex] of aspirin =1

Loss during production of [tex]$41 \times 10^9 \mathrm{~g}$[/tex] of aspirin [tex]$=1 / 0.209 \times 41 \times 10^9=196.2 \times 10^9$[/tex]

Hence, loss [tex]= 196.2 \times 10^9=196.2[/tex] billion

For such more questions on recrystallization process.
