Predict reagents needed to complete this E1 elimination reaction.
Br
Although we normally think of acetic acid as an acid, it can also act as a weak base. Treated with a strong acid, it can become
protonated. The conjugate acid of acetic acid is shown.

Draw curved arrows for resonance structure 1.
H₂C
Derive a resonance structure for this ion which, taken with the given structure, would show that the two -OH groups are
equivalent, the two C-O bonds are equivalent, and the positive charge is shared equally by the two oxygens.

The skeleton for the second resonance structure is provided. Add the bond(s), charge(s), and unshared pairs of electrons. Then
draw the curved arrows to show the flow of electrons that transforms each resonance structure into the other.
