Esterification occurs when a carboxylic acid reacts with an alcohol. This reaction can only occur in the presence of an acid catalyst and heat. ... This reaction lost an -OH from the carboxylic acid and a hydrogen from the alcohol.

Answer:

Esters and water were formed when alcohol reacts with carboxylic acid. This reaction is called esterification reaction.

It is a reversible reaction.

Since it is a reversible reaction, Esters can undergo hydrolysis to form corresponding alcohol and organic acid.
