(b)
Interpretation: The mechanism of the given reaction is to be written.
Concept introduction: The carboxylic acid and its derivatives undergo nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction. The incoming group is called as nucleophile and the substituent that departs from molecule is known as leaving group. If the attacking group is a good base as compared to the substiuent that is already present than attacking group will replace the existing substituent.
