Step 1

Aldehydes and ketones react with two moles of an alcohol to give geminal diethers, known as acetals or ketals.  Moreover, they can also react with one mole of alcohol to produce hemiacetal or hemiketal. However, acetals or ketals are more stable over the hemiacetal or hemiketal. The formation of acetals or ketals are catalyzed in presence of acid.

In the given question, the product is a hemiketal as it is produced by reacting with a ketone and alcohol.
