Acid chlorides react with Grignard reagents to yield tertiary alcohols. Two equivalents of Grignard reagent are required. The first equivalent reacts in a typical nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction to give a ketone. This ketone, however, is itself reactive in the Grignard reaction. Thus, the second equivalent adds to the ketone carbonyl carbon. Subsequent protonation yields the tertiary alcohol.

Draw the curved arrows to show the movements of electrons in this step of the mechanism.

The movement (flow) of electrons during bond-forming and/or bond-breaking events is depicted by curved arrows. The location of the electron or electron pair's origin is shown by the foot of the arrow, and their destination is indicated by the head of the arrow.

Which curved arrows depict how the electron pairs are moving during the reaction?

"Curly arrows" are most frequently used to depict the motion of electron pair. Similar arrows can also be used to depict the motion of a single electron, although these arrows' heads only have a single line as opposed to two.

What does a reaction's curved arrow represent?

Nonlinear, curved arrows with barbs on one end are used to represent electron flow. an arrow with two barbs a double-barbed arrow denotes motion of a pair of electrons, while a single-barbed arrow denotes motion of a single electron.
