Explanation:
Esterification is a chemical reaction that occurs between the acid (usually carboxylic acid) and the alcohol (or compounds containing the hydroxyl group) where esters are obtained. The reaction takes place in acidic environments
In chemistry, a dehydration reaction is a conversion that involves the loss of water from the reacting molecule or ion. Dehydration reactions are common processes, the reverse of a hydration reaction. Common dehydrating agents used in organic synthesis include sulfuric acid and alumina.
