Ester of higher fatty acids gives sodium salt of higher fatty acid; when heated with glycerol and sodium hydroxide.
Sodium salts of higher fatty acid are known as soaps.
This reaction is called saponification (soap making).
The reaction of ethanoic acid with sodium carbonate and sodium bicarbonate is as follows:-
Ethanoic acid gives sodium acetate, water and carbon dioxide when reacts with sodium carbonate or sodium bicarbonate (sodium hydrogen carbonate).
2CH3COOH + Na2CO3 ⇨ 2CH3COONa + CO2 + H2O
CH3COOH + NaHCO3 ⇨ CH3COONa + CO2 + H2O

HEY!!
_______________________________
▶▶It is a reaction in which ester is heated in presence of a base (mainly NaOH) to give out ethanol and ethanoic acid, this process is used in making of soap.
CH3COOC2H5 ------NaOH----------> CH3COOH + C2H5OH
Ethyl Ethanoate Ethanoic acid Ethanol
