1. Deposition
2. Distillation
3. Esterification
4. Sublimation

Asked by Marean587

Answer (3)

The answer is (3) esterification. Note that deposition, distillation and sublimation are not chemical changes, they are physical changes, so you can solve this question by elimination if you know that. Regarding sterification it is a well known chemical reaction that consists on the formation of esters from carboxilic acids.

The correct answer is (3) esterification, as it is a type of organic chemical reaction that forms esters from carboxylic acids and alcohols. Other options like deposition, distillation, and sublimation are physical processes, not chemical reactions. Esterification is significant in organic chemistry for synthesizing various esters used in different applications.
