a.

Summary Introduction

To determine:

If the given organic reaction involves condensation, hydrolysis, oxidation or reduction.

Introduction:

Atoms consist of three subatomic particles namely proton, electron, and neutron. Out of these subatomic particles only electrons are involved in bonding. The formation of a bond between two species always due to the involvement of electrons either it undergoes loss of electrons or gains of electrons.
