Chapter 15, Problem 87

The industrial solvent ethyl acetate is produced by the reac-tion of acetic acid with ethanol: CH3CO2H1soln2 + CH3CH2OH1soln2 ∆ CH3CO2CH2CH31soln2 + H2O1soln2 Ethyl acetate (b) A solution prepared by mixing 1.00 mol of acetic acid and 1.00 mol of ethanol contains 0.65 mol of ethyl ace- tate at equilibrium. Calculate the value of Kc. Explain why you can calculate K without knowing the volume of the solution.
