When ethanol (an alcohol) reacts with acetic acid (a carboxylic acid) in the presence of an acid as catalyst a fruity (sweet) smelling liquid called ester is obtained. This reaction is called esterification.
Here, H2SO4 act as dehydrating agent, i.e. it removes water formed, otherwise ester formed will get converted into acid. The ester gets converted back into alcohol and sodium salt of acid when treated with alkali like sodium hydroxide. This reaction is called saponification, as it is used for the preparation of soap.
