Answer 2

Esterification is a type of reaction in which esters are prepared in Organic Chemistry.

Esters are prepared by reacting organic acids with alcohols in presence of conc. sulphuric acid. We get a fruity smell.

For example:

CH3COOH + C2H5OH --------> CH3COOC2H5 + H2O.
CH3COOC2H5 or ethyl acetate is the ester here.
