Do you mean formula? Structure? Equation implies there is a reaction taking place.
Aspirin's full chemical name is 2-ethanoyl hydroxybenzoic acid and the formula is C9H8O4
I've already tried and failed once to render a molecular structure using text so if you want to know that it takes 10 seconds of googling.

Yes, but you usually have to crush it somewhat or it will take all day. The coated aspirin won't.
See discussion.
aqueous acetylsalicylic acid decomposes to salicylic acid and acetic acid
water + acetylsalicylic acid ---> acetic acid + salicylic acid
Aspirin + water = aspirin(aq)
C9h8o4
The chemical reaction is: One mole of aspirin plus one mole of water yields one mole of salicylic acid plus one mole of acetic acid. Aspirin=C9H8O4 Salicylic acid=C7H6O3 Acetic acid=C4H6O3
The reaction is: (CH3CO)2O + H2O = 2 CH3COOH
Aspirin is made when salicylic acid and acetic anhydride is reacted in the presence of an acid catalyst such as H2SO4. Acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin) and acetic acid is formed. The reaction is an esterification reaction.
When aspirin gets old, it begins to decompose and you get a vinegar smell. If you smell that, the aspirin is decomposing and acetic acid is being released. Aspirin should be used before the decomposition occurs. It will still work, because the salicylic acid that does the work is still there. It can be corrosive to the stomach and that's why they combine it with a process that produces acetylsalicylic acid (aspirin). When decomposition occurs, you get salicylic acid and acetic acid.
No
yes
Aspirin is formed in a reaction between salicylic acid and acetic anhydride. In this reaction it is the phenolic alcohol group that reacts to form the aspirin.
C9H8O4 - use google to find the structure. This isn't a straight chain molecule.
Yield (also called as actual yield) is the amount of a product (aspirin) obtained by an experiment in a chemical reaction in a laboratory.
yes! right from production to its reaction!
Yes. If there is the appearance of a gas (fizzing), then a chemical reaction has occurred.
The chemical reaction is:C9H8O4 + NaHCO3 = C9H7O4Na + H2O + CO2
