When
Carboxylic Acid is treated with
Alcohols in the presence of
acid as a catalyst it produces corresponding
Esters. This reaction is called as

Also, this reaction is a reversible reaction and the ester formed can also hydrolyze to produce Carboxylic acid and Alcohol. This reverse reaction is called as
transesterification.
The formation of
Ethyl Acetate from
Acetic Acid and
Ethanol in the presence of acid is shown below,
