Question

Note that carboxylic acid is used in slight excess (mol alcohol + 0.001 mol).

To synthesize 0.013 mol of 3-methylbutyl propanoate,

___grams, or ____ mL of 3-methyl-1-butanol and

___grams, or ____mL of propanoic acid are needed.

MW of 3-methyl-1-butanol = 88.2 g/mol
density of 3-methyl-1-butanol = 0.809 g/mL
MW of propanoic acid = 74.1 g/mol
density of propanoic acid = 0.993 g/mL
