Hello dear,

● Answer -
Ethyl ethanoate and silver bromide

● Explaination -
Silver salt of carboxylic acid reacts with alkyl halide to give esters.
RCOOAg + R'Br ---> RCOOR' + AgBr

Alcoholic silver acetate reacts with ethyl bromide to give ethyl ethanoate.
CH3COOAg + C2H5Br ---> C2H5OCOCH3 + AgBr

Silver bromide ppt is formed as byproduct in this reaction.


Hope this helps you.
