What is Benzoic Acid Synthesis in Batch Reactor about?

This experiment studied the synthesis of benzoic acid from ethyl benzoate in a batch reactor. Three experiments were conducted, with the first two at 50°C with 0.35 ethanol mole fraction and the third at 50°C with 0.25 ethanol mole fraction. The rate constants measured were 1.15, 0.686, and 0.876 L/(mol*min) respectively, showing that a lower ethanol mole fraction produced benzoic acid at a higher rate as predicted. The concentration of benzoic acid approached 0.1M but did not exceed it, as the amount of et
