The reaction of ethyl acetate with sodium hydroxide, ch3cooc2h5(aq)+naoh(aq)⇌ch3coona(aq )+c2h5oh(aq) is first order in ch3cooc2h5 and first order in naoh. if the concentration of ch3cooc2h5 was increased by half and the concentration of naoh was quadrupled, by what factor would the reaction rate increase?

so the reaction rate increases by a factor 6.

Explanation:

For the given equation the reaction is first order with respect to both ester and sodium hydroxide

So we can say that the rate law is

now as per given conditions the concentration of ester is increased by half it means that the new concentration is 1.5 times of old concentration

The concentration of NaOH is quadrupled means the new concentration is 4 times of old concentration.

The new rate law is

the final rate = 6 X initial rate

so the reaction rate increases by a factor 6.

okay yes , aha.

mechanics (greek   is that area of science concerned with the behaviour of physical bodies when subjected to forces or displacements, and the subsequent effects of the bodies on their environment. the scientific discipline has its origins in ancient greece with the writings of aristotle and archimedes[1][2][3] (see history of classical mechanics and timeline of classical mechanics). during the early modern period, scientists such as galileo, kepler, and newton laid the foundation for what is now known as classical mechanics. it is a branch of classical physics that deals with particles that are either at rest or are moving with velocities significantly less than the speed of light. it can also be defined as a branch of science which deals with the motion of and forces on objects. the field is yet less widely understood in terms of quantum theory.
