WILL MARK BRAINLIEST IF GOOD EXPLANATION... Ethyl acetate is a sweet-smelling solvent used in varnishes and fingernail polish remover. It is produced industrially by heating acetic acid and ethanol
together in the presence of sulfuric acid, which is added to speed up the
reaction. The ethyl acetate is distilled off as it is formed. The equation for the
process is as follows.

CH3COOH + CH3CH2OH --> CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O

Determine the percentage yield in the following cases:
a. 68.3 g of ethyl acetate should be produced but only 43.9 g is recovered.
b. 0.0419 mol of ethyl acetate is produced but 0.0722 mol is expected. (Hint:
Percentage yield can also be calculated by dividing the actual yield in moles
by the theoretical yield in moles.)
c. 4.29 mol of ethanol is reacted with excess acetic acid, but only 2.98 mol of
ethyl acetate is produced.
d. A mixture of 0.58 mol ethanol and 0.82 mol acetic acid is reacted and 0.46
mol ethyl acetate is produced. (Hint: What is the limiting reactant?)

Rocks, as they are compressed, begin forming mountains above the earth's surface when two continental plates converge. the continental crust increases in depth as the mountains grow above. the himalayan mountains formed at a convergent plate boundary in this manner. the rocks are smashed together causing them to due to the intense heat and pressure from the colliding plates and eventually forming rock. a) melt; igneous b) layer; sedimentary c) recrystallize; metamorphic d) melt into the earth's interior; metamorphic
