d. III and IV

b. ii and iii

Explanation:

The ester, Butyl Butanoate is formed when Butanol reacts with Butanoic acid

as seen below;

CH3-CH2-CH2-CH2-OH  +  CH3-CH2-CH2-COOH     >

Butanol                                     Butanoic acid

CH3-CH2-CH2-COOCH2-CH2-CH2-CH3   +          H2O

Butyl Butanoate                                                      Water

adding or remove a gaseous reactant or product changes the concentrations. if the concentration of reactant or product is increased, the system will shift away from the side in which concentration was increased (i.e. if the concentration of reactants is increased, the system will shift toward the products. if more products are added, the system will shift to form more reactants). conversely, if the concentration of reactant or product is decreased, the system will shift toward the side in which concentration was decreased (i.e. if reactants are removed, the system will shift to form more reactants. if the concentration of products is decreased, the equilibrium will shift toward the products).
