(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reaction of Fischer esterification to form the given ester is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The reaction of carboxylic acid and alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst produces ester and water as a side product is known as Fischer esterification. The catalyst is used to speed up the reaction. The mechanism of reaction starts with an addition of a proton. An acid catalysed hydrolysis of an ester is the reverse reaction of Fischer esterification.
