Ester Memes

The meme shows the chemical structure of an ester functional group with a clever Easter pun! In organic chemistry, esters have the formula R-COO-R', where R and R' are hydrocarbon groups. The structure shows the characteristic C=O bond with an oxygen single-bonded to another group. The "Happy Ester!" title is a brilliant chemistry wordplay on "Happy Easter!" because esters are compounds formed when carboxylic acids react with alcohols. Only chemistry nerds would get this delicious pun that makes you groan and appreciate molecular structures simultaneously!
