Write the structures of all possible isomers of ${\mathrm{C}}_6{\mathrm{H}}_{12}{\mathrm{O}}_2$.

What is the IUPAC name of formic acid?

• Take $150\mathrm{mL}$ water in a beaker and warm it to ${60}^{\circ }\mathrm{C}$.
• Take two test tubes and label them $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$ respectively.
• Take $5\mathrm{mL}$ ethanol in test tube $\mathrm{A}$.
• Take $5\mathrm{mL}$ glacial acetic acid in test tube $\mathrm{B}$ and add $4$ to $5$ drops concentrated sulphuric acid to it.
• Now add the solution in the test tube $\mathrm{A}$ to the solution in test tube $\mathrm{B}$.
• Now place the test tube in the warm water so that the reaction mixture also becomes warm. Keep shaking the test tube from time to time.
• Pour the reaction mixture in a solution of sodium hydrogen carbonate in water. Doing this will cause the unreactive ethanoic acid to react with ${\mathrm{NaHCO}}_3$. Did you see any bubbles? 
• Observe the reaction mixture and note if there is any distinct smell (sweet and fruity). The smell could be due to which substance?

What will happen when ethanol reacts with ethanoic acid? Write the balanced chemical equation of the reaction.
