This document discusses carboxylic acids, esters, and macromolecules. Carboxylic acids contain a carboxyl group that gives them acidic properties. Esters are formed from a reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid, and have different properties depending on the length of their carbon chains. Macromolecules are very large molecules formed from repeating structural units, such as proteins, nucleic acids, and synthetic polymers.
