Carboxylic acid, although unreactive to alcohols, reacts in the presence of small amount of conc. H_2 SO_4 or with 2-3 % of HCl ? RCOOH + R'OH overset (H^(oplus)) hArr RCOOR' + H_2 O Which of the following statements is//are correct about the above reaction ? (I) This reaction is called Fischer esterification reaction. (II) The equilibrium is shifted to R.H.S if H_2 O is removed by azeotropic distillation with benzene. (III) The reaction of RCOCl and R'OH to give ester (RCOOR') is irreversible and more feasible than esterification of RCOOH . (IV) If the above esterification of RCOOH is carried out in excess of R'OH , the equilibrium is shifted to R.H.S .
