211mg benzoic acid was recovered after recrystallization from 485mg impure benzoic acid following the same experimental procedure outlined in the lab manual. 18mL of water at 95C was used as the recrystallizing solvent and cooled to 20C. Calculate the mass in mg of benzoic acid lost to the solution. Units do not need to be typed, simply enter the correct number. At 20C the solubility of benzoic acid is 2.9g/L, therefore you need to multiply the volume used initially to dissolve the whole substance by this amount (correctly converting units) in order to determine how much mass of benzoic acid actually stays in the solution
