Abstract

Calorimetry is a technique for studying kinetics, which can overcome the deficiencies of the methods commonly used, particularly when the reactions are carried out in non-aqueous solvents. Expression of the thermograms obtained by conduction microcalorimetry as equations and direct treatment of the experimental data with the aid of a non-linear regression programme makes it possible, in the case of slow reactions, to solve both simple and complex problems of kinetics of different orders. The saponification of ethyl acetate by potassium hydroxide in azeotropic ethanol served to test the validity of the proposed method.
