- Material for 15 Groups
- Tests for Salicylic Acid Confirm Students' Work
Students learn it's possible to produce acetylsalicylic acid from a naturally occurring, renewable resource by converting sodium salicylate to salicylic acid and then drying the prepared salicylic acid.
They may then use a quick confirmatory test to examine for the presence of salicylic acid, which can be used to synthesize acetylsalicylic acid.
