(a)
Interpretation:
The mechanism and product for the given reaction is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The carbonyl carbon is electrophilic in nature due to the electronegativity difference. The nucleophile adds the electrophilic carbon of the carbonyl group. Since water is amphoteric in nature, it can act as an acid as well as base depending on availability and the reaction condition. The reaction follows a different mechanism for an acid and a base catalyst. When the reaction is catalyzed by the acid, the first step of the reaction is always protonation of the carbonyl oxygen, which increases the electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon. For a base-catalyzed reaction, the first step is the deprotonation of the nucleophilic species to enhance the nucleophilic character.
