Ethyl acetate is synthesized in a nonreacting solvent (not water) according to the following reaction: CH3CO2H 1 C2H5OHmCH3CO2C2H5 1 H2O K 5 2.2 Acetic acid Ethanol Ethyl acetate For the following mixtures (ad), will the concentration of H2O increase, decrease, or remain the same as equilibrium is established?a. [CH3CO2C2H5] 5 0.22 M, [H2O] 5 0.10 M, [CH3CO2H] 5 0.010 M, [C2H5OH] 5 0.010 M b. [CH3CO2C2H5] 5 0.22 M, [H2O] 5 0.0020 M, [CH3CO2H] 5 0.0020 M, [C2H5OH] 5 0.10 M c. [CH3CO2C2H5] 5 0.88 M, [H2O] 5 0.12 M, [CH3CO2H] 5 0.044 M, [C2H5OH] = 6.0 M d. [CH3CO2C2H5] 5 4.4 M, [H2O] 5 4.4 M, [CH3CO2H] 5 0.88 M, [C2H5OH] 5 10.0 M e. What must the concentration of water be for a mixture with [CH3CO2C2H5] 5 2.0 M, [CH3CO2H] 5 0.10 M, and [C2H5OH] 5 5.0 M to be at equilibrium? f. Why is water included in the equilibrium expression for this reaction?
