5.40 Ethyl acetate reacts with ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ in the presence of a catalyst to yield ethyl alcohol: ${\mathrm{C}}_4{\mathrm{H}}_8{\mathrm{O}}_2(l)+{\mathrm{H}}_2(g)?{\mathrm{C}}_2{\mathrm{H}}_6\mathrm{O}(l)$ (a) Write a balanced equation for the reaction. (b) How many moles of ethyl alcohol are produced by reaction of $1.5\mathrm{mol}$ of ethyl acetate? (c) How many grams of ethyl alcohol are produced by reaction of $1.5\mathrm{mol}$ of ethyl acetate with ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ ? (d) How many grams of ethyl alcohol are produced by reaction of $12.0\mathrm{g}$ of ethyl acetate with ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ ? (e) How many grams of ${\mathrm{H}}_2$ are needed to react with $12.0\mathrm{g}$ of ethyl acetate?
