Experiment No:-02
Aim: To measure the kinetics of the reaction between non-equimolal ethyl
acetate and sodium hydroxide at room temperature by integral method of
analysis.
Apparatus : 1. Titration setup (burette, pipette, conical flask, stand)
2. 500ml beakers
3. Magnetic stirrer
4. Stop watch
5. Thermometer
Chemicals: 0.1 N HCI solutions, 0.1 N NaOH, 0.1 N ethyl acetate solution
phenolphthalein (indicator)
Chemical reaction :- NaOH+CH3COOC2H5 CH3COONa+C2H5OH
Procedure:-
•Take 0.1 N 100 ml ethyl acetate solutions in a 500 ml beaker which serves as a
batch reactor.
• To this add 0.1 N, 100 ml NaOH solution slowly and keep the contents of the
reactor well stirred
• Soon after adding NaOH to the reactor start stopwatch & pipette out 5 ml f
sample from it at following intervals.
• Sample 1,2,3,4, 5: for every one minute
• Sample 6,7,8: for every two minutes
• Sample 9,10, 11: for every three minutes
• Remaining samples: for every five minutes
• For each sample, transfer 5 ml pipette volume to a conical flask already
containing 50 ml water
• Titrate the contents of conical flask against 0.1 N HCl solution using
phenolphthalein as an indicator tabulate your readings.
Observations:
1. Room temp = 28°C
2. Normality of NaOH solution = 0.1N
3. Normality of Ethyl acetate solution = 0.1N
4. Normality of HCL solution (N2) = 0.1N
5. Burette: 0.1N HCL solution
6. Conical flask: 5 ml mix + 50 ml water
7. Indicator: Phenolphthalein
8. End point: Pink to colorless

CALCULATIONS:- (For 1st observation)
1. Initial concentration of NaOH (CAO)
CAO =(100) (Normality of NaOH soln)/200
=100*0.1/200
=0.05 mol/lit
2. Concentration of NaOH at any time (CA)
N1V1 = N2V2
CA=N1=N2V2/V1
=0.1*2.6/5
=0.052 mol/lit
Where V1=volume of reaction mixture taken by pipette = 5 ml
