Reaction CH_(3)COOH+C_(2)H_(5)OH to CH_(3)COOC_(2)H+H_(2)O is an illustration of

Answer»

dehydration
ESTERIFICATION
neutralization
dehydrogenation

Solution :We know that ,
`CH_(3) COOH + C_(2) H_(5)OH UNDERSET(Delta) OVERSET(CONC. H_(2)SO_(4)) HARR CH_(3)COOC_(2)H_(5)+H_(2)O`.
Thus in this reaction , an ester `(CH_(3)COOHC_(2)H_(5))` is formed . This process is called esterfication .
