    1. Shows structural formulas of carboxylic acids with different alkyl groups. 2. Describes reactions of carboxylic acids with (a) litmus paper, (b) calcium carbonate, and (c) magnesium. 3. Discusses (a) dehydration reaction of carboxylic acids to form esters, and examples of (b) an ester and (c) the smell of esters. 4. Shows (a) structural formula of a triglyceride, (b) that esters are formed from alcohol and carboxylic acid groups, and examples of (c) hydrolysis of an ester using sodium hydroxide and (d)
