(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The resonance forms of intermediates formed in solved problem 201 and how these resonance forms describe the occurrence of reaction under very mild condition are to be stated.

Concept introduction:

The resonance form of a substance related to the stability of the product, the more number of resonance forms increase the stability of a substance. The non-conjugated substances do not possess resonance structures. The presence of an alternation single and double bonds in a compound is known as conjugation.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The mechanism for the acid-catalysed hydrolysis of ethyl formate is to be shown.

Concept introduction:

The synthesis of the compound relies upon the type of reactants and reagents that are used during the reactions. The energy of the product should be low because low energy of a compound increases the stability of a compound. The stability of a compound is the major factor that is responsible for the formation of a compound. The reagents perform numerous functions in reactions like proton abstraction, oxidation, reduction, catalysis, and dehydrogenation.
