Answer:
1) HCOOCH3
2) CH3CH2COOCH3
3) CH3CH2CH2CH(CH3)COOCH3
Explanation:
In the reaction between an alcohol and a carboxylic acid, an ester and water are formed. It is analogous to the inorganic neutralization reaction but this reaction is called esterification in organic chemistry. Esters contain the general formula RCOOR where the RCOO moiety was obtained from the acid and the other R moiety was obtained from the alcohol. The -COOR shows the ester linkage in the molecule. The condensed structural formulas shown in the answer reflects these facts.
