Answer:

When ethanethiol is treated with potassium hydroxide (KOH), CH3CH2SK and water H2O is formed.

Explanation:

  • Ethanethiol has the formula CH3CH2SH
  • Alkylthiols are a group of substances that include ethanethiol, commonly referred to as ethyl-mercaptan or ethanethiol sodium salt.
  • Alkylthiols are organic substances that have an alkyl chain connected to the thiol functional group.
  • Ethanethiol is a very weakly acidic chemical that is soluble (in water) (based on its pKa).
  • Potassium hydroxide, sometimes known as caustic potash, is an inorganic chemical with the formula KOH.
  • KOH is a typical strong basic, along with sodium hydroxide.
  • It has numerous industrial and specialised uses, the majority of which make use of its caustic properties and acid reactivity.

CH3CH2SK and H2O are formed when ethanethiol is treated with KOH.
