3. Draw the structures of phenyl chloride and benzyl chloride (the purpose of this is so thatyou can see how the “benz" prefix refers to something other than the simple benzene ring,and hence why benzoate has the structure it does).4. Methyl benzoate can be formed from the esterification of benzoic acid and methanol, usingsulfuric acid as a catalyst. Give an equation for this reaction.

We can distinguish benzyl chloride and phenyl chloride by taking the compounds in test tubes then…

Answered: 3. Draw the structures of phenyl…
