An alcohol, ROH, reacts reversibly with ethanoic acid to produce an ester.
ROH(l) + CH$_3$COOH(l) $\rightleftharpoons$ CH$_3$COOR(l) + H$_2$O(l)
3.0 mol of ROH, 2.0 mol of ethanoic acid and 1.0 mol of water are mixed together. At equilibrium, 1.5 mol of CH$_3$COOR is present.
What is the value of the equilibrium constant, K$_c$, for this reaction?
