To complete the reaction of CH₃COCl (acetyl chloride) with H₂O (steam), we will follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Reactants**: The reactants are acetyl chloride (CH₃COCl) and water (H₂O). Acetyl chloride is an acid chloride, which is a derivative of acetic acid. 2. **Nucleophilic Attack**: Water acts as a nucleophile and attacks the electrophilic carbon atom in the carbonyl group of the acetyl chloride. The oxygen atom in water has lone pairs of electrons that can be used to form a bond with the carbon atom of the carbonyl group. This step can be represented as: \[ ...
