Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The products of the given reaction are to be predicted with an explanation using the curved-arrow notation.
Concept introduction:
The curved-arrow notation is used to show the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. The curved arrow has two barbs (head and tail) which represent the direction of electron flow. Brønsted acid-base reactions are those reactions in which electron pair displacement takes place and electrophilic center is a proton.
(b)
Interpretation:
The products of the given reaction are to be predicted with an explanation using the curved arrow notation.

Brønsted acid-base reactions are those reactions in which electron pair displacement takes place and electrophilic center is a proton. The species which donates electron pair are known as Brønsted base. On the other hand, the species which accepts electron pair from another species are termed as Brønsted acid.
