Explanation:

Esterification is any reaction (typically between an fatty acid and an alcohol) that results in the production of an ester, while transesterification is the reaction of an ester with an alcohol in order to replace the alkoxy group; it is used in the synthesis of polyesters and in the production of biodiesel.

HOPE IT WILL HELP YOU

Esterification is the reaction of an acid (condensation of the carboxyl group of the acid) with an alcohol (the hydroxyl group of the alcohol) in the presence of a catalyst.

an ester is a chemical compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which at least one –OH (hydroxyl) group is replaced by an –O–alkyl (alkoxy) group. Usually, esters are derived from a carboxylic acid and an alcohol.
