Why acetic anhydride used instead of acetic acid to prepare aspirin?
The -OH in acetic acid is not a very good leaving group so converting it to an ester is more complicated unlike acetic anhydride which is easier to do so.
Equation of laboratory preparation of acetic acid?

What are the compound names for salicylic acid and acetic anhydride?
Your question has the names right in it. Maybe it's the chemical formulas you want. In that case, salicylic acid is C7H6O3 and acetic anhydride is C4H6O3.
In the preparation of aspirin water is added to the reaction flask Why?
The formation of aspirin will proceed faster if acetic anhydride is used in place of acetic acid. However, acetic anhydride will hydrolyze in the presence of water to form acetic acid, slowing down the reaction.
