The concentration of methyl acetate (CH3COOCH3) was measured at various temperatures during a reaction with sodium
hydroxide to form the acetate anion (CH3COO") and methanol (CH3OH) according to the following reaction:
CH-СOОСH3(ag) + ОH (аq) — СH;COO (aq) + СH3ОН(ад).
The initial concentrations of CH3COOCH3(aq) and OH"(aq) were 5·10-6 M or 5.00 µM and 0.150 M, respectively.
Reminder: In PLA 9-1 you determined that this reaction was
1
order with respect to both reactants and
2
O order overall.
