Please help! The Michael reaction is a conjugate addition reaction between a stable nucleophilic enolate ion (the donor) and an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound (the acceptor). 1.)

Answer:

See explaination andd attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

Treatment of aldehydes and ketones with a suitable base can lead to the formation of a nucleophilic species called an enolate that reacts with electrophiles. These C nucleophiles are useful for making new carbon-carbon bonds.

Please kindly see attachment for the drawings.
