Answer:

esterification is a chemical reaction that forms at least one ester (= a type of compound produced by reaction between acids and alcohols). Esters are produced when acids are heated with alcohols in a process called esterification. An ester can be made by an esterification reaction of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol.
