???????

The esterification reaction between butanol and acetic acid in the presence of sulfuric acid is carried out in a constant volume batch reactor at $25^{?}\mathrm{C}$. Excess butanol is used. The initial concentration of butanol is $50\mathrm{mol}/{\mathrm{dm}}^3$. a) Using the following data find the reaction order with respect to acetic acid. b) In a separate set of experiments, the reaction order with respect to butanol was found to be first order. Determine the reaction rate constant.
