How can you reject water from methyl stearate in esterification reaction between stearic acid and methanol?

Well, I think, if you use a Dean-Strark apparatus, you will be able to get the ester. If the boiling point of ester is more than that of water, then on refluxing, water will collect in the side tube.

Reaction between sodium hydroxide and methanol?
no it will not
What is a possible product of a reaction between chloromethane and sodium hydroxide solution?
methanol, substitution reaction
What is the difference between a hydrolysis and neutralization reaction?
Esterification involves the reaction between an alkanol and alkanoic acid while neutralization involves an acid and a base.2. Esterification produces ester and water as product while neutralization produces salt and water only. 3. Esterification is a reversible reaction while neutralization is not.Esterification occurs in the presence of a mineral acid which act as a catalyst and also a as a dehydrating agent while neutralization can occur without been in the presence of a mineral acid.

What is the compound formed after plunging a heated copper wire into a methanol?
It depends on what you added to the methanol before you put the heated copper wire into the methanol. The heated copper wire acted as a catalyst to speed up the reaction between the methanol and the other substance. Copper itself does not react with methanol.

What is the definition of esterification?
Generally it is the name of reaction which exist between alcohol and acid. the acid we commonly used is carboxylic acid. ester is formed during this reaction. R-OH + RCOOH ~ RCOOR + H 2 O
Is there any reaction between Magnesium stearate and Vitamins?
Incompatible with strong acids, alkalis, and iron salts. Avoid mixing with strong oxidizing materials. Magnesium stearate cannot be used in products containing aspirin, some vitamins, and most alkaloidal salts.
What is form the reaction between methanol and ethanoic acid?
