The first O is connected to the second C with a double bond.

The underscore means subscript.
I assume that is CH3COOCH3. That is an ester.
RCOOH acid
RCOOCH3 ester
RCH2NH2 amine
RCH3CONH2 amide (a primary amide in this case)
So the answer would be an ester since it would be the functional group?
yes
