Chapter 2, Problem 17CTQ
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:Non-legitimate Lewis structure from CTQ 13 should be identified by giving reasons.
Concept introduction:A Lewis structure is diagrammatic view of a molecule, where lone pair of electrons is represented in dots, bonds are represented with lines & formal charge of each atom is mentioned near the atom.

I need to indicate how the first resonance structure (the one with #4 above it) turns into the second one with arrows, but I cannot figure it out.
Which arrow (x, y, or z) points toward the most acidic proton in the molecule to the right? (Arrows pointing toward C can be assumed to point at the H attached to that C.)
Which structural feature plays the most significant role in influencing the relative acidities of the indicated protons?
a. inductive effect
b. size
c. resonance
d. hybridization
