Neco 2020 Chemistry Question 32
Practice objective / multiple choice question 32 from the 2020 Neco Chemistry examination.
A mixture containing 6.00 g of acetic acid (M = 60.05 g mol⁻¹) and 4.50 g of ethanol (M = 46.07 g mol⁻¹) is allowed to react completely according to the esterification: \(\mathrm{CH_3COOH + C_2H_5OH \rightarrow CH_3COOC_2H_5 + H_2O}\). After the reaction, 5.00 g of ethyl acetate (M = 88.11 g mol⁻¹) is isolated. Assuming 100 % conversion of the limiting reagent, calculate the percentage yield of ethyl acetate.
