The ethyl acetate concentration in an alcoholic solution was determined by diluting a 10.00-mL sample to 100.00 mL. A 20.00-mL portion of the diluted solution was refluxed with 40.00 mL of 0.04672 M KOH:

CH3COOC2H5 + OH-

CH3COO- + C2H5OH

After cooling, the excess OH- was back-titrated with 3.41 mL of 0.05042 M H2SO4. Calculate the amount of ethyl acetate (88.11 g/mol) in the original sample in grams.
