An ester , propyl methanoate ( HCOOC₃H₇) when reacts with sodium hydroxide( NaOH) forms sodium methanoate (HCOONa) as the main product and propanol (C₃H₇OH).
The reaction is as follows:
HCOOC₃H₇+NaOH ⇒HCOONa + C₃H₇OH
So when propyl methanoate is hydrolyzed in water and in NaOH then sodium methanoate (HCOONa) as the main product and propanol (C₃H₇OH) forms
