===Reactions of Carboxylic Acids===
====Neutralisation====
[[Carboxylic Acid]]s can be [[neutralise (Chemistry)|neutralised]] to [[Product|produce]] [[Organic Compound|organic]] [[salt]]s.
: [[Methanoic Acid]] + [[Potassium]] → [[Potassium Methanoate]] + [[Hydrogen]]
<math>2HCOOH + 2K → 2HCOOK + H_2</math>
: [[Ethanoic Acid]] + [[Magnesium Oxide]] → [[Magnesium Ethanoate]] + [[Water]]
<math>2CH_3COOH + MgO → (CH3COO)_2Mg + H_2O</math>
: [[Propanoic Acid]] + [[Sodium Hydroxide]] → [[Sodium Propanoate]] + [[Water]]
<math>C_2H_5COOH + NaOH → C_2H_5COONa + H_2O</math>
: [[Butanoic Acid]] + [[Magnesium Carbonate]] → [[Magnesium Butanoate]] + [[Water]] + [[Carbon Dioxide]]
<math>2C_3H_7COOH + MgCO_3 → (C_3H_7COO)_2Mg + H_2O + CO_2</math>
====Esterification====
[[Carboxylic Acid]]s may [[Chemical Reaction|react]] with [[alcohol]]s to [[product|produce]] [[compound]]s known as [[ester]]s which have the [[Functional Group|functional group]] -COO-.
: [[Methanoic Acid]] + [[Ethanol]] → Ethyl Methanoate + [[Water]]
<math>HCOOH + C2_H_5OH → HCOOC_2H_5 + H_2O</math>
: [[Ethanoic Acid]] + [[Ethanol]] → Ethyl Ethanoate + [[Water]]
<math>CH_3COOH + C_2H_5OH → CH_3COOC_2H_5 + H_2O</math>
: [[Propanoic Acid]] + [[Propanol]] → Propyl Propanoate + [[Water]]
<math>C_3H_5COOH + C_3H_7OH → C_2H_5COOC_3H_7 + H_2O</math>
: [[Butanoic Acid]] + [[Propanol]] → Propyl Butanoate + [[Water]]
<math>C_3H_5COOH + C_3H_7OH → C_3H_5COOC_3H_7 + H_2O</math>
