Consider the reaction,

C{H_3}COOH\mathrm{ } + \mathrm{ }{C_2}{H_5}OH\;\;\leftrightharpoons\;\;C{H_3}COO{C_2}{H_5} + \mathrm{ }{H_2}O.

One mole each of

C{H_3}COOH

and

{C_2}{H_5}OH

are heated in the presence of little concentrated

{H_2}S{O_4}.

On equilibrium:

View answer and explanation

Correct option: D

2/3

mole of ethyl acetate is formed

Option D (

2/3

mole of ethyl acetate is formed) is correct because it is calculated using the equilibrium constant and initial moles of reactants.
