From Esterification and Hydrolysis experiment 
2. How would an ester differ from a carboxylic acid or alcohol in terms of its structure? In terms
of its IR spectra?
3. What is the purpose of reflux in this experiment? Explain why the water flow begins from top
to bottom.
4. What is the purpose of solvent extraction? What components would be located in the
ether/water layers?
5.Draw (or use to a literature reference to acquire) a general 'H NMR spectra + structure of
methyl benzoate and assign the proton peaks corresponding to each hydrogen on the product.
