 * __Esterification ~ (Banana- Glacial acetic acid/ 3-methyl-1-butonal)__**

//Student D + E//

4.0 mL glacial acetic acid x 1.049g/mL = 4.196 g

3.6 mL 3-methyl-1-butanol x 0.827g/mL = 2.977 g

4.196 g + 2.977g = 7.173 g total original reactants

total product recovered: 3.207 g*

3.207g/ 7.173 g x 100 = 44.7% yield


 * note: there was some product spilled during separation.
