(a)
Interpretation:
The products of the given reaction are to be predicted with an explanation using the curved arrow notation.
Concept introduction:
The curved-arrow notation is used to show the transfer of electrons from one atom to another. The curved arrow has two barbs (head and tail) which represent the direction of electron flow. Lewis acid-base association reactions are those reaction in which a Lewis acid combines with Lewis base to form a product.
