esterification ----->
ROH + R'-COOH -------> R'COOR acid with alcohol gives ester
transesterification
ROH + R'COOR'' -------- > R'COOR change of alkyl group present with R'COO by using a alcohol
if you want to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transesterification
Esterification is the general name for a chemical reaction in which two reactants (typically an alcohol and an acid) form an ester as the reaction product.
H3C-COOH + HO-CH2-CH3 → H3C-COO-CH2-CH3 + H2O
Transesterification is the process of exchanging the alkoxy group of an ester compound with another alcohol. These reactions are often catalyzed by the addition of an acid or base.

What is the difference between a hydrolysis and neutralization reaction?
Esterification involves the reaction between an alkanol and alkanoic acid while neutralization involves an acid and a base.2. Esterification produces ester and water as product while neutralization produces salt and water only. 3. Esterification is a reversible reaction while neutralization is not.Esterification occurs in the presence of a mineral acid which act as a catalyst and also a as a dehydrating agent while neutralization can occur without been in the presence of a mineral acid.

What is the difference between a naturally occurring solution and a manufactured or processed solution?
The only difference is the origin of the solution. A naturally-occurring solution is one that comes about by natural processes with non human interference. A manufactured or processed solution is one that is created by industrial production, in a laboratory, or from other human processes.
What is the role of the mineral acids in the esterification process?
esterification is between an organic carboxylic acid and alcohol but sulphuric acid is required in mechanism which converts the carboxylic acid molecule into a carbonium ion which reacts with alcohol and forms an ester.
Meaning of esterification?
esterification is the formation of esters between the reaction of alkanol and alkanoic acid

What is the difference between competing processes and cooperating processes in operating system?
The difference is that competing processes in an operating system compete for resources. Cooperating processes share resources, and some even work together to complete the same task.
