Safety Procautions: Wear your safety gogeles. Sulfuric acid can cause chemical bums that may seriously damage shin and lor eyes. Wear goggles and gloves and avoid coptact. If contact occurs, wash with copious amounts of water. A paste mude with baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) and water can alwo be applied to the skin to scutralire the acid The carboxy lic acids and alcoheb used is this experiment can be irritating with foul odor. Kecp all reagents in the fume bood to minimize odon. Waste Disposal: The residual amounts of amounts of organic compounds ased in this lab are safe to dispose down the drain. However, anything larger than 1 milliliter shoula be captured in the liquid erganic waste stream. Tip: After rinsing the sink with water, check, for the pleasant odors of the esters that might remain in the $sink!$ Pre-lab Questions: 1) What precautions are necessary when: A) using sulfuric acid B) using a warm-water bath C) snelling the odor of esters 2) What is the purpose of sulfuric acid in today's experiment? 3) Why should test tubes be dry in today's reactions? (Hint: Esterification is an equilibrium reaction.) 4) Butyl alcohol $\left({\mathrm{CH}}_3{\mathrm{CH}}_2{\mathrm{CH}}_2{\mathrm{CH}}_2\mathrm{OH}\right)$ reacts with acetic acid $\left({\mathrm{CH}}_3{\mathrm{CO}}_2\mathrm{H}\right)$ to form an ester. A) Draw a balanced equation for this reaction. B) What is the name of this ester?
