Answer

CH3COOCH2CH3\text{CH}_3\text{COOCH}_2\text{CH}_3

Here's the solution to the chemistry problem:

a) Write the name and formula of the organic compounds

  • X: Formed from the reaction of ethanol (CH3CH2OH\text{CH}_3\text{CH}_2\text{OH}) and ethanoic acid (CH3COOH\text{CH}_3\text{COOH}). This is an esterification reaction.
    • Name: Ethyl ethanoate
    • Formula: CH3COOCH2CH3\boxed{\text{CH}_3\text{COOCH}_2\text{CH}_3}
  • C: Formed from compound D. Compound D is ethene (CH2=CH2\text{CH}_2=\text{CH}_2), which is formed by the dehydration of ethanol. The notation Dn\text{D}_n
