alcohol + acid--->ester
eg:
ethanol+ethanoic acid inprsence of conc H2SO4 ---->ethylethanoate
ester--->sodium salt of carboxylic acid
eg:
ethylethanoate with NaOH gives CH3COONa and glycerol

Esterification reaction -
CH3COOH + C2H5OH in the presence of an acid catalyst ------->CH3COOC2H5(Ester)
Saponification reaction -
CH3COOC2H5 in the presence of NaOH
------->C2H5OH +CH3COONa(sodium ethanoate)
CH3COOH + C2H5OH in the presence of an acid catalyst ------->CH3COOC2H5(Ester)
Saponification reaction -
CH3COOC2H5 in the presence of NaOH
------->C2H5OH +CH3COONa(sodium ethanoate)
