Answer:
Esterification is the reaction between a carboxylic acid and an alcohol whereas transesterification occurs between an ester and an alcohol.
Explanation:
Esterification is a conversion of an acid into an ester by combination with an alcohol and removal of a molecule of water. This process can be catalyzed by an acid or base.
Transesterification is a reaction between an ester of one alcohol and a second alcohol to form an ester of the second alcohol and an alcohol from the original ester, as that of methyl acetate and ethyl alcohol to form ethyl acetate and methyl alcohol; interesterification
