CH3COOC2H5(1) + H2O(1) ⇌ CH 3COOH (aq) + C 2H 5OH (aq)
The purpose of H+ in the reaction above is to
increase the yield of products
maintain the solution at a constant PH
increase the rate of the hydrolysis
decrease the rate of the reverse reaction
Correct answer is C
The purpose of hydrogen ion is to speed up the decomposition of ethyl ethanoate to yield ethanoic acid and ethanol...so we can say that it is serving as a calalyst i.e increases the rate of hydrolysis.
