`CH_(3)COOH` when reacts with `C_(2)H_(5)OH` gives a product . The same product is obtained by which reaction ?

A

Acetic acid + methanol

B

Acetic anhydride + water

C

Acetic anhydride + ethanol

D

Acetamide + methanol

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Acids when react with alcohols form ester. Thus , `CH_(3)COOH + C_(2)H_(5)OH to underset("ethyl ethanoate")(CH_(3)COOC_(2)H_(5)) + H_(2)O`
Acetic anhydride when reacts with ethanol gives the same product , ie, ethyl ethanoate .
