In this experiment you will synthesize the ester of your choice from the table above. A general
description of the experiment is given. Before coming to the laboratory, calculate the masses of
your chosen reagents (alcohol and carboxylic acid). You will be asked to show your calculations to
your laboratory instructor for approval.
The following example will show you how to approach the problem. Assume that the ester of your
choice is hexyl propionate (hexyl propanoate). The alkyl group in the name, hexyl in this case,
indicates the alcohol (1-hexanol) from which the ester is made. The second word in the name,
propionate (propanoate), indicates the acid used; in this case propionic (propanoic) acid. Knowing
the reactants, the alcohol and the carboxylic acid, use the molar masses from the table of reagents
in the manual to calculate the masses required Far
