It is proposed to produce ethanol by one of two reactions:
C2H5Br + OH− ↔ C2H5OH + Br~ (2)
Use Spartan (see Appendix J) or some other software package to answer the following:
(a)What is the ratio of the rates of reaction at 25 °C? 100 °C? 500 °C?
(b)Which reaction scheme would you choose to make ethanol? (Hint: Consult Chemical Marketing Reporter or www.chemweek.com for chemical prices).[Professor R. Baldwin, Colorado School of Mines]
