Answer: the name is Ethylpropanoate

Step-by-step explanation:

To name this compound, you start naming from the end.

CH3CH2COOCH2CH3

The CH2CH3 after the double oxygen is called Ethly while the parent chain is called propane ( 3 C). The double oxygen will replace the —e in the alkane to —oate

So combining it, we have Ethylpropanoate
