E. Answer all sections (i) - (iv). 1 mole of ethanol (C2H5OH) and 1 mole of ethanoic acid (CH3COOH) were reacted at 25 °C, in a non- aqueous solvent, until equilibrium was reached. It was subsequently determined that 0.33 moles of ethanol remained at equilibrium. (i) Write an equation for the reaction. (ii) Write an expression for the equilibrium constant, Kc, for the reaction and calculate its value. Subsequently a further 3 moles of C2H5OH was added to the solution. (iii) Determine the concentrations of all the species present when eguilibrium is restored

Calculate the ratio of dissolved benzoic acid to benzoate ion that will exist in solution at equilibrium at a pH of 2.00. The acid equilibrium constant (K a ) for benzoic acid is 6.46 * 10 ^ (- 5) .
