What reaction conditions most effectively conver a cabocxylic acid to a methly ester?

Esterification reaction

Explanation:

When we have to go from an acid to an ester we can use the esterification reaction. On this reaction, an alcohol reacts with a carboxylic acid on acid medium to produce an ester and water. (See figure).  

In this case, we need the methyl ester, therefore we have to choose the appropriate alcohol, so we have to use the methanol as reactive if we have to produce the methyl ester.
