The reaction between ethyl iodide and hydroxide ion in

Chapter , Problem 14.118

(choose chapter or problem)

The reaction between ethyl iodide and hydroxide ion in ethanol 1C2H5OH2 solution, C2H5I1alc2 + OH- 1alc2 C2H5OH1l2 + I - 1alc2, has an activation energy of 86.8 kJ>mol and a frequency factor of 2.10 * 1011 M-1 s -1 . (a) Predict the rate constant for the reaction at 35 C. (b) A solution of KOH in ethanol is made up by dissolving 0.335 g KOH in ethanol to form 250.0 mL of solution. Similarly, 1.453 g of C2H5I is dissolved in ethanol to form 250.0 mL of solution. Equal volumes of the two solutions are mixed. Assuming the reaction is first order in each reactant, what is the initial rate at 35 C? (c) Which reagent in the reaction is limiting, assuming the reaction proceeds to completion? (d) Assuming the frequency factor and activation energy do not change as a function of temperature, calculate the rate constant for the reaction at 50 C.
