The Second-Order Hydrolysis Reaction of Ethyl Acetate, CH3COOC2H5 (Aq) +H2 \rightarrow

Question 64

Multiple Choice

The second-order hydrolysis reaction of ethyl acetate, CH3COOC2H5 (aq) +H2 O(l) \rightarrow CH3 COOH(aq) + C2 H5 OH(aq) , follows pseudo-first-order reaction kinetics in solutions in which the molarity of water is assumed to be roughly constant at 55.5 M.An experiment using an initial CH3COOC2H5 concentration of 0.06500 M is conducted under pseudo-first-order conditions.After 60 seconds, [CH3COOC2H5] = 0.05764 M.Estimate the second-order rate constant.


A) 2.00 F*10-3 M -1 s-1
B) 1.27 * 10-3 M -1 s-1
C) 3.61* 10-5 M -1 s-1
D) 0.111 M -1 s-1
E) 6.67 M -1 s-1
