The kinetic result of hydrolysis of Ethyl Caprlyate has been investigated at different composition of aqueous-organic solvent with Acetone (30-70% v/v) over the temperature range of 20 to 40°C. The calculated result follows second order kinetics and is observed that the rate decreases with increasing proportion of Acetone. This behavior is attributed electrostatic nature that various solvent-solute interaction in reaction media. Linear plots of Logk against water concentration shows that equilibrium shifted from dense form to bulky form. Iso-kinetic temperature has been determined with the help of slopes of (ΔH*) versus (ΔS*). Thermodynamic parameter has been calculated with the help of Wynne-Jones and Eyring equation.
