Question

Consider the acid-base reaction below to answer the following question(s). $CH_3CH-\underset{CH_3}{C}H-O^- + H-\overset{\cdot \cdot}{O}-H \longrightarrow$ base acid a. Show the mechanism by drawing curved arrows (draw on the above). b. Write the products that would be formed (write them in the space above) c. Show the appropriate formal charges (if any) on the products. d. Label the conjugate acid/base. e. Would this reaction occur as written?
