No. Aspirin prevents the synthesis of Thromboxane A2 which induces platelet aggregation (formation of a clot) and platelet release reaction. Aspirin inhibits this platelet aggregation for the life of the platelets, which is between 7-10 days. The cool thing with aspirin is that it thins your blood, the bad thing is that it thins your blood and if you want to stop taking aspirin (for any reason, even before surgery) you have a 3x increase of stroke or heart attack for 8-10 days because of its rebound effect. Aspirin is a light-weight compared to Heparin or Coumadin, but Heparin is easily reversed with Protamine-sulfate solution 1% and Coumadin with Vitamin K - something to think about. Maybe one day a drug will be created to reactivate Thromboxane A2 synthesis, but not yet. Trust your PA-C's.

What color does blue litmus paper turn when dipped in aspirin?
Aspirin is a low soluble acidic substance, so only WHEN (finally) dissolved in water, it will turn blue litmus into red. Aspirin = 2-acetoxybenzoic acid = acetylsalicylic acid = C9H8O4 = (CH3COO)-C6H4-(COOH)
Is adding salt to water a reversible change?
No it is not reversible because the salt disolves and cannot come back !
What liquid dissolves aspirin the fastest tonic water or distilled water?
I did this experiment for my science class and i got they both dissolved at the same time
An experiment was performed in lab that was supposed to produce aspirin. How could chromatography be used to tell if aspirin was actually the product of the reaction?
i would recommend using high performance liquid chromatography or the common thin layer chromatography using a spot of the sample and a spot of dissolved aspirin to compare the Rf-value or relative retention times of the 2 spots to determine if you have aspirin
Is dissolving salt in water reversible or irreversible?
This is a reversible process.
Is sugar reversible when dissolved in water?
if by reversible you mean can you get it back as regular sugar than yes
How does aspirin effect roses?
Aspirin can be dissolved in a vase of water to help prolong the life of the flowers. The aspirin gives them extra nutrients and is usually what is the basis of the packets florists give customers.
What pH would you expect aspirin dissolved in water to exhibit?
Aspirin is acetylsalicylic acid. From the name you should expect a pH of less than 7. Exactly how much less depends on how much aspirin and how much water.
Can aspirin lead to liver failure?
YES! Research shows that about 50% of patients who were given Aspirin (also called acetylsalicylic acid) regularly in anti-inflammatory doses have developed mild, dose-dependent reversible liver damage. Note: Regular and heavy consumption of Aspirin will produce hemorrhage.

What is meant by the term thermochromic?
this is the dramatic, reversible colour change that occurs when a material is melted or dissolved in a solvent, it is a phase change not a temperature effect despite its name.

Why do Aspirin Tablets dissolve faster in hot water?
asprin tablets dissolve quicker in hot water because the particles inside the tablet are more affected by hot water
Is evaporating reversible or irreversible?
