In the above reaction one mole each of the acetic acid and alcohol are heated in the presence of little conc. H2SO4. On equilibrium being attained
A.1 mole of ethyl acetate is formed
B.2 moles of ethyl acetate are formed
C.1/3 mole of ethyl acetate is formed
D.Unpredictable.✓ Correct
Explanation
2 4 H SO 3 2 5 3 2 5 2 CH COOH C H OH CH COOC H H O 1 1 0 0 1-x 1-x x x We cannot predict the amount of ethyl acetate form. Hence, the correct answer is option (d) Kp and Kc relationship
