15. Chemical Kinetics / Arrhenius Equation / Problem 4

The table below shows the results of a kinetics study for the alkaline hydrolysis of ethyl acetate.
CH3COOC2H5 + NaOH → CH3COONa + C2H5OH

Table showing temperature in °C and corresponding rate constants for a kinetics study.The reaction is second-order overall (First order in ethyl acetate and first-order in sodium hydroxide). Calculate the value of the rate constant at 10.0 °C.
