Solution Steps

Step 1: Identify the Reactant in Solid Form

To determine which reactant is a solid that is weighed out before the start of the synthesis reaction, we need to identify the physical state of each listed compound.

Step 2: Analyze Each Compound
  • Acetic anhydride: This is a liquid at room temperature.
  • Salicylic acid: This is a solid at room temperature.
  • Acetic acid: This is a liquid at room temperature.
  • Sulfuric acid: This is a liquid at room temperature.
  • Acetylsalicylic acid: This is a solid at room temperature.
Step 3: Determine the Correct Solid Reactant

Among the listed compounds, salicylic acid is a solid that is typically weighed out before the start of a synthesis reaction, such as in the synthesis of acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin).

Final Answer

\(\boxed{\text{salicylic acid}}\)

What are the causes of metabolic alkalosis? Select the correct answer below: Too much CO2 is eliminated, dropping the CO2 pressure below 38 torr and resulting in a rise in blood pH. This can be caused by hyperventilation, fever, excessive exercise, or reactions to certain drugs. The body eliminates too much acid or produces too much base for the renal system to compensate, resulting in a rise in blood pH. Breathing difficulty or lung problems that reduce the ability to remove CO2, resulting in a CO2 pressure over 42 torr, so acidic protons are not removed and the pH drops. Changes in the H+ or HCO3- concentrations that result in the pH dropping. It can be brought on by diabetes, kidney disease, diarrhea or vomiting, or inadequate oxygen.
