write the reaction for the hydrolysis of propionyl propionate (an ester) -- that is, the reaction of this ester with water, yielding a carboxylic acid and an alcohol.

NOTE: here is a general format for ester formation

alcohol + acid - - - > ester + H2O

and here is the general format for the reverse (for hydrolysis of an ester):

ester + H2O - - > alcohol + acid
