Answer:
10.87 g of Ethyl Butyrate
Solution:
The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,
H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-COOH + H₃C-CH₂-OH → H₃C-CH₂-CH₂-COO-CH₂-CH₃ + H₂O
According to equation,
88.11 g (1 mol) Butanoic Acid produces = 116.16 g (1 mol) Ethyl Butyrate
So,
8.25 g Butanoic Acid will produce = X g of Ethyl Butyrate
Solving for X,
X = (8.25 g × 116.16 g) ÷ 88.11 g
X = 10.87 g of Ethyl Butyrate
NaOH is a strong base so pH will be around 13 to 12. Whatever number of moles of NaOH you have approximately the pH of NaOH will be around 14 13 or 12
