✔️✔️✔️Esterfication reaction:-

⭕️When an organic acid reacts with an alcohol in the presence of acid catalyst, it produces a sweet  smelling substance called ester.

➖ In simple words:-

⭕️Esterification reaction the reaction in which carbo-oxylic acid combines with an alcohol to form an ester is called esterification it gives a sweet smell.

✴️️CH 3 COOH + C 2 H 5 0H ---------> CH 3 COOC 2 H 5 +H 2 O

✔️✔️✔️️Saponification reaction :-

⭕️Ester reacts in presence of an acid or a base to give back the 
alcohol and the carboxylic acid. this reaction is known as Saponification because it is used in the preparation of soap.

➖️In simple words :-

⭕️Seponification reaction is what where the easter on treating with NaOH gets converted back to alcohol and sodium salt of carbo oxylic acid this reaction is called seponification reaction.

⭕️ It is used in the preparation of soap .

✴️CH3COOC2H5 -----------> CH3COOH + C2H5OH

✔️✔️✔️Kindly note the Differences too :-

⭕️Saponification means process of preparation of soap and Esterification means process of preparation esters.

⭕️Saponification involves reaction between carboxylic acid and a base whereas Esterification involves reaction between alcohol and carboxylic acid.

⭕️Esterification needs  as a catalyst whereas Saponification do not need.

✴Easter are sweet smelling substance formed by reaction of carboxylic acid with alcohol .They are used for perfumes, soap industries, flavouring agents.
