An aspirin sample is synthesized from salicylic acid and acetic anhydride and then tested for purity using an iron(III) chloride solution. The resulting solution is a deep purple color. What caused the purple color?
The iron(III) chloride solution reacted with a unreacted salicylic acid, forming the purple iron(III) salicylate complex.
The iron(III) chloride solution reacted with the synthesized aspirin molecule, forming the purple iron(III) aspirin complex.
The iron(III) chloride solution reacted with a unreacted acetic anhydride, forming the purple iron(III) anhydride complex.
The iron(III) chloride solution is the final step in the purification of the synthesized aspirin. It will react with any unreacted salicylic acid or acetic anhydride to ensure the final sample of aspirin is pure.

Answer asap need by wednesday morning explain how a buffer works, using an ethanoic acid/sodium ethanoate system including how the system resists changes in ph upon addition of a small amount of base and upon addition of a small amount of acid respectively. include the following calculations in your i. calculate the ph of a solution made by mixing 25cm3 0.1m ch3cooh and 40cm3 0.1m ch3coo-na+. [ka = 1.74 x 10-5 m] ii. calculate the ph following the addition of a 10cm3 portion of 0.08 m naoh to 500cm3 of this buffer solution. iii. calculate the ph following the addition of a 10cm3 portion of 0.08 m hcl to 200cm3 of the original buffer solution.
