and products are constant. In this experiment set up‚ the reaction between ethanoic acid and ethanol to produce ethyl ethanoate and water is a reversible reaction as shown by the following equation: CH₃COOH + CH₃CH₂OH↔CH₃COOCH₂CH₃ +H₂O The Equilibrium Law states that at equilibrium the ratio [CH₃COOCH₂CH₃][H₂O]/[CH₃COOH][CH₃CH₂OH] is constant at constant temperature. This ‚ Kc‚ is called the equilibrium constant for the reaction. AIM: To verify the Equilibrium Constant for an Esterification

Equilibrium: Finding equilibrium constant‚ Kc 1 Abstract Chemical reactions are accompanied with formation of products. A reaction can be reversible or forward according to the rate of formation of product. However‚ they do not reach completion and the mixture remains in equilibrium. This theory help us the study the existence of equilibrium constant‚ Kc. This constant is temperature dependent‚ and it must be calculated at given temperature. This equilibrium constant is used to improve the
