Question 2 ? 1. Given that the esterification reaction is an equilibrium (forward andreverse reactions occurring), what could you do experimentally to pushthis equilibrium to the right (that is, towards the product). Hint: Write out thebalanced equation; what are the products?OH3C-C-0H+ +H-OC₂H5 H3C-C-OC₂H₂ + H₂0excess of+H30с(Can be shifted to the right by addingeither reactant Carboxylic Acid oralcohol.)2. Which spectroscopic method or methods would you use to follow thecourse of this reaction? Using this method or methods, what would youspecifically expect to see which would indicate that the reaction hasgone to completion?

Esterification is a chemical reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid or its derivative,…

1. Given that the esterification reaction is an equilibrium (forward and reverse reactions occurring), what could you do experimentally to push this equilibrium to the right (that is, towards the product). Hint: Write out balanced equation; what are the products? the O H+ H3C-C-0H+ +H-OC₂H5 → H3C-C-OC₂Hs+H+₂₂0 (Can be shifted to the right by adding either reactant Carboxylic Acid or excess of alcohol.) 2. Which spectroscopic method or methods would you use to follow the course of this reaction? Using this method or methods, what would you specifically expect to see which would indicate that the reaction has gone to completion?
