Step-by-Step Solution

Answer

(part a) The products' condensed structural formula is

(part b) The products' line-angle formula is

(part c) The products' condensed structural formula is 

(part d) The products' line-angle formula is 

Step1: Introduction. (part a)

Carboxylic acids are acidic medium compounds that produce hydronium ions while also neutralizing bases in water. In carboxylic acids, the carbon of a carbonyl group is joined to the carbon of a hydroxyl group attached a carboxyl group. The carboxylate group can form a bond with both an alkyl and a fragrant group.
