Draw the mechanism for the first step in the reaction of resorcinol with ethyl acetoacetate including all proper electron pushing arrows. Use the back of this page for space as needed.

Attached below is the required diagram .

Explanation:

During the reaction of resorcinol and ethyl acetoacetate there is the production of a transesterification product, and this transesterification product is produced in other to increase the electrophicilty of the carbonyl center.

Attached below is the required diagram .

the tides are influenced by both the moon and the sun, it's easy to see that when the sun lines up with the moon and the earth, as during a new moon or full moon, the tidal effect is increased. these are known as spring tides, named not for the season, but for the fact that the water "springs" higher than normal. on the other hand, if the sun and the moon are 90 degrees apart in relation to an observer on earth as during the first quarter moon or third quarter moon, then high tides are not as high as they normally would be. this is because despite its greater distance, the sun's mass allows it to exert enough gravitational force on the oceans that it can negate some of the effects of the moon's pull. this phenomenon of lower high tides is called a neap tide. if you need more information on this topic visit moonconnection.com.

let that person have a turn to speak : )
