    \[C{{H}_{3}}COOH(1)\,\,+\,\,{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\,(1)\,\rightleftharpoons \] \[{{\operatorname{CH}}_{3}}COO{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}\left( 1 \right) + {{H}_{2}}O\left( 1 \right).\] In the given reaction, one mole of each of acetic acid and alcohol are heated in the presence of little cone. \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]. On equilibrium being attained

    A) 1 mole of ethyl acetate is formed

    B) 2 moles of ethyl acetate are formed

    C) 1/2 moles of ethyl acetate is formed

    D) 2/3 moles of ethyl acetate is formed

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

    In the presence of little \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\] (as catalyst) about 2/3 mole of each of \[C{{H}_{3}}OOH\] and \[{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\] to form 2/3 mole of the product at equilibrium.
