In the hydrolysis of ethyl acetate, what is the relationship between the order of the reaction and the concentrations of both ethyl acetate and water?

Options

  1. ABoth concentrations affect the reaction order.
  2. BOnly the concentration of ethyl acetate affects the reaction order.
  3. COnly the concentration of water affects the reaction order.
  4. DNeither concentration affects the reaction order.

Correct answer

B. Only the concentration of ethyl acetate affects the reaction order.

Step-by-step solution

In the hydrolysis of ethyl acetate, the rate of reaction is affected by the concentration of ethyl acetate only, making it a second-order reaction.
