T was the night before Christmas‚ when all through the house Not a creature was stirring‚ not even a mouse; The stockings were hung by the chimney with care‚ In hopes that St. Nicholas soon would be there; The children were nestled all snug in their beds‚ While visions of sugar-plums danced in their heads; And mamma in her ’kerchief‚ and I in my cap‚ Had just settled down for a long winter’s nap‚ When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter‚ I sprang from the bed to see what was the

So they are both the fourth densest item. I was wrong with my hypothesis when I placed

VI. Results and Discussion In this exercise‚ the goal was to produce acetylsalicylic acid through the organic synthesis from the reaction of salicylic acid to acetic anhydride‚ the starting materials. Instead of using acetic acid‚ acetic anhydride was used as solvent since the anhydride reacting with water to form acetic acid tends to drive the reaction to the right.
