The following equation describes the oxidation of ethanol (C2H5OH) to acetic acid (CH3COOH) by potassium permanganate (KMn04):3 C2H5OH + 4 KMnO4 –> 3 CH3COOH + 4 MnO2 + 4 MnO2 + H2OA) What is the theoretical yield of acetic acid if 5.00 g of ethanol and 10.00 g of potassium permanganate react?b) If the percent yield of the reaction in B was 91%, what was the actual yield?
