Determining the equilibrium constant for an esterification reaction
CH3COOH(l)+CH3CH(OH)CH3(l)<----->CH3COOCH(CH3)2(l)+H2O(l)
Step1:Mix 0.300 mole of ethanoic acid and 0.300 mole of propan-2-ol in a pear-shaped flask.
Step 2:Withdraw 1.00 cm3 of this mixture and add to a conical flask containing 25 cm3 of distilled water. Titrate the contents of the conical flask against 0.250 mol dm-3 sodium hydroxide solution. 30.0 cm3 of NaOH is required.
Calculation:
CH3COOH(l)+NaOH(aq)<----->CH3COONa(aq)+H2O(l)
no.of moles of NaOH=no. of moles of CH3COOH
0.250 mol dm-3 x (30.0/1000) dm3 = [CH3COOH(l)] x (1.00 /1000) dm3
[CH3COOH(l)] = 7.50 mol dm-3
therefore, concentration of CH3COOH(l) in the original mixture is 7.50 mol dm-3
我唔明紅色個度,點解係用1.00 cm3 而唔係用(1.00+25) = 26 cm3(total volume of the solution wo...)?
