Ester is the condensation product of an Carboxylic acid and alcohol in organic chemistry.In condensation two molecules combine such that the eleimination of small molecule like water takes place. Or it could be said that ester are dehydration product of alcohol and carboxylic acid. Reaction could be written as : RCOOH (Carboxylic acid) + HO-R' (alcohol) â RCOOR' (Ester ) Esters can be identified by the presence of -COO- linkage in the organic compound.
The aim of this experiment was to identify which functional groups the various chemicals and unknown substances belonged to using the different reaction tests. The main purpose was to determine the reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones. Aldehydes and Ketones are organic compounds consisting of the carbonyl functional group. Aldehydes contain their carbonyl group at the end of the carbon chain and are susceptible to oxidation while Ketones contain theirs in the middle of the carbon chain and are resistant to oxidation.
