acid hydrolysis of ester experiment
IV SEMMESTER
1 KINETICS OF ACID HYDROLYSIS OF AN ESTER AIM: To determine the rate constant of the hydrolysis of Ethyl acetate using an acid as a catalyst PRINCIPLE: The hydrolysis of an ester occurs according to the equation CH3COOC2H5 + H2O CH3COOH + C2H5OH This reaction follows pseudo first order kinetics PROCEDURE: |
How do you synthesis an ester?
The synthesis of an ester can be accomplished in one of several ways. In this lab, esterification occurs when an alcohol and a carboxylic acid are reacted in the presence of an acid catalyst, such as concentrated sulfuric acid. Other synthetic pathways to esters also exist. Acid chlorides react with alcohols to yield an ester and hydrochloric acid.
How is ester hydrolysis reversible?
The hydrolysis of esters is catalyzed by either an acid or a base. Acidic hydrolysis is simply the reverse of esterification. The ester is heated with a large excess of water containing a strong-acid catalyst. Like esterification, the reaction is reversible and does not go to completion.
How does pH affect ester hydrolysis?
kH2O [H2O]. Ester hydrolysis has been shown to be accelerated by both acid and base so the rate is pH dependent as shown below. At high pH, the dependence of log k vs pH increases with a slope of +1 (specific base ‘catalysis’). In general, reaction with OH− is important even at pH values below pH 7.

Health, Safety and Technical Notes
Read our standard health and safety guidance.Wear goggles throughout.The essential requirements for these tubes are: neutral borosilicate glass a wide flat base, so that they are stable when stood in a beaker. If not available, small test tubes could be used instead
Procedure
Add 10 drops of ethanoic acid (or propanoic acid) to the sulfuric acid in the specimen tube.Add 10 drops of ethanol (or other alcohol) to the mixture.Put about 10 cm3 of water into the 100 cm3beaker. Carefully lower the tube into the beaker so that it stands upright.Heat the beaker gently on a tripod and gauze until the water begins to boil, then stop heating. edu.rsc.org
Teaching Notes
This method is an updated version of the traditional test tube scale approach to ester preparation, which minimises the risks involved in handling the reagents involved. For further information about this method of ester preparation, consult CLEAPSS Guidance Leaflet PS67-07 ‘Making esters’. This method is only suitable for preparing small samples f
