✔️✔️Esterification is when an acid and an alcohol react to give an ester and water. 

⭕️Esterification reaction is defined as the reaction between alcohol and acetic acid to form a sweet smelling substance used in "flavor" called Ester.

➖CH3CH2OH + CH3COOH ---› CH3COOCH2CH3* + H2O

*CH3COOCH2CH3 is ethoxy ethane

⭕️Esterification is the chemical reaction in which we obtain ethyl ethanoate and water by reacting ehanol and ethanoic acid.

✔️✔️Saponification is the reverse of this. That is, the hydrolysis of ester to give acid and alcohol. 

⭕️Saponification reaction is defined as the constituents used in making the "ester" can be regained in their original form.

⭕️It is used in the preparation of soaps.

⭕️Saponification is the reverse of esterification.

⭕️ In this reaction sodium hyroxide is reacted with ethyl ethanoate to obtain soap and ethanol.

➖️CH3COOCH2CH3 + H2O ----› CH3CH2OH + CH3COOH

✔️✔️Kindly note the differences too!

✔️✔️✔️Difference :-

⭕➖️Saponification means process of preparation of soap.

➖Esterification means process of preparation esters.

⭕️➖Saponification involves reaction between carboxylic acid and a base.

➖Esterification involves reaction between alcohol and carboxylic acid.

⭕➖️Esterification needs  as a catalyst ➖Saponification do not need.
