1. n-butanol = n-butanol + Reaction n-butyl acetate
colorless solution H2SO4 = colorless CH3COOH(aq) + C4H9OH (ester) can be
H2SO4
H2SO4 = solution (aq) ⇌ CH3CO2C4H9 (aq) made by
colorless solution n-butanol + + H2O(l) esterification
Glacial acetic H2SO4 + acetic by reacting
acid = acid = colorless MgSO4 + 7H2O acetic acid with
colorless solution solution MgSO4.7H2O(aq) n-butanol and
boiling stones = heated = boiling H2SO4 as a
white solid after 1,5 hours = NaHCO3(l) + catalys
