Density of sodium phenoxide and sodium salicyalte?

Hi,

does anyone knows the density for both solids? i tried to look for them but looks like its not my lucky day. hopefully anyone could help me with this. i would appreciate it.

thank you very much.

Try looking in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics
These are trivially available online, or consult any decent university library.

Why on earth do you want to know the density of a solid?
Sodium phenoxide; 0.898 g cm-3
Sodium salicylate; 0.35 g cm-3

I found these online, from reliable sources. These means that you could also.


Next time, do so. Excercise your laziness away.

Aren't you a teacher or something? Can't you conceive of all number of contrived classroom exercises that would involve densities of solids?

nope ....

as we never measure the volume of solids there is little need for the density. It´s my understanding that the OP is carrying out a synthesis of aspirin.

I can think of all number of useful uses the density has in solid state chemistry, actually.

Regardless, him being asked to find it is reason enough for him to need it, I'm sure.
