Answer #1

Solubility of n-butyl acetate in water is 0.68 %

i.e 0.68g/100ml at 20°C(normal temperature)

Therefore, we can calculate the solubility of n-butyl acetate in 250ml water is,

250ml ×0.68 g/100 mL =1.7g

Hence we can say the maximum loss due to dissolution in sodium bicarbonate and water is 1.7g.
