Acetanilide (C6H5NHCOCH3, M = 135.2) can be prepared from aniline (C6H5NH2, M = 93.1) and acetic anh — Stoichiometry Chemistry Question
Question
Acetanilide (C6H5NHCOCH3, M = 135.2) can be prepared from aniline (C6H5NH2, M = 93.1) and acetic anhydride ([CH3CO]2O, M = 102.1) according to the balanced equation below.
C6H5NH2 + (CH3CO)2O → C6H5NHCOCH3 + CH3COOH

A.
50.0%
B.
68.9%
C.
69.3%
D.✓ Correct
75.5%
