Determine a value of Kc for the equilibrium which is established when ethanol reacts with ethanoic acid.
Ch3COOH + CH3CH2OH = CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O
Set up a mixture of ethanoic acid, ethanol, water and dilute HCL(catalyst) leave for a week to come to equilibrium. A control of dilute HCL is set up to.
The mixture is then poured into excess water and then titrated with 0.100 mol dm-3 sodium hydroxide solution. Results give the total concentration of acid in the equilibrium mixture. Titration of the control shows the concentration of the dilute HCL from this the concentration of the ethanoic acid can be determined.
Use the densities and volumes given to calculate the initial amount in moles , for the ethanoic acid , ethanol and water in the equilibrium mixture. Assume 2.0cm3 of 1mol dm3 HCL adds 2.0cm3 of water to the mixture.
Titrate the control:
Pour contents of control and add 100ml of distilled water. Use indicator for pink endpoint and titrate with NaOH solution from burette.
My Control was 25.8ml
Titration of equilibrium mixture:
Use 1.0ml of equilibrium mixture and add 100ml of distilled water into conical flask.
Titrate as done above with NaOH and indicator.
My average of three results was 40.35ml
