Answer:
B
Explanation:
The general equation for the reaction of a carboxylic acid with an alkanol to form an ester is shown below;
RCOOH + ROH ------> RCOOR + H2O
Hence; the reactant carboxylic acid can only be the compound (CH3)2-CH-CH2-COOH in accordance with the general reaction equation shown above.
Hence the reaction is;
(CH3)2-CH-CH2-COOH + CH3-CH2OH -------> CH3CH2 OCO-CH2-CH-(CH3)2
