Consider the gas-phase hydration of hexafluoroacetone, (CF3)2CO:
(CF3)2CO(g)+H2O(g)⇌krkf(CF3)2C(OH)2(g)
At 76 ∘C, the forward and reverse rate constants are kf=0.13M−1s−1 and kr=6.2×10−4s−1.

Answer #1

equilibrium constant = forward rate constant/ reverse rate constant

                          K    = Kf/Kr

                         K    = 0.13/(6.2*10^-4)

                         K = 2.096*10^2
