basically oil is fat at liquid state in room temperature. hence, oil will be unsaturated fat which is 2 and 4.

Esterification raction is the reaction betwen a carboxylic acid and an alcohol to produce an ester - for example - CH3COOH and C2H5OH produces CH3COOC2H5 and H2O
Here, 3) is a dialcohol and 1) is a carboxylic acid.
So, an ester for 1) and 3) is
CH3(CH2)COO-CH2CH2-OOC(CH2)CH3 + 2H2O

Reaction between 1 and 4 will produce oil. Oil is an ester so it needs reaction between an organic acid with alcohol. In this case to produce oil, it is the reaction between one glycerol molecule (an alcohol, number 4) combining with three fatty acid molecules (number 1).
