Question
Acetic acid and ethanol react to form ethyl acetate and water, like this:
HCH3CO₂(aq) + C₂H²OH(aq) → C₂H₂CO₂CH₂(aq)+H₂O(1)
Imagine 230. mmol of C₂H²CO₂CH3 are removed from a flask containing a mixture of HCH³CO₂, C₂H²OH, C₂H²CO₂CH3 and H₂O at equilibrium, and
then answer the following questions.
What is the rate of the reverse
reaction before any C₂H5CO₂CH3
has been removed from the flask?
What is the rate of the reverse
reaction just after the C₂H5CO₂CH3
has been removed from the flask?
What is the rate of the reverse
reaction when the system has again
reached equilibrium?
How much less C₂H5CO₂CH3 is in
the flask when the system has
again reached equilibrium?
