Salicyclic acid reacts with methanol to produce methylsalicyclate or winter green and water according to the following reaction:

Question

C7H6O3 (s) + CH3OH (l) --> C8H8O3 (s) + H2O (l)

What mass methylsalicyclate can be produced from 15.00 grams of salcyclic acid? What mass of methanol is required? If the methanol has a density of 0.79 g cm-3 What volume of methanol is required?
