Answer:

See explanation and image attached

Explanation:

Fischer esterification is a type of reaction used to convert carboxylic acids to ester in the presence of excess alcohol and a strong acid which acts as a catalyst. Another final product formed in the reaction is water.

The mechanism for the fischer esterification of Benzoic acid and C H 3 O H in the presence of HCl as the catalyst is shown in the image attached to this answer.

The final products of the reaction are methyl benzoate, water and H^+ as shown in the image attached.
