1.) What is a condensation reaction? What is the smallmolecule lost in this reaction?

2.) In this reaction, all the reactants are ketonecompounds. Can condensation reactions be extended to other carbonylcompounds than ketones?

3.) What is an enol? In a tautomerization equilibrium, willthe enol or the keto isomer will be favored?

4.) What is the driving force for the enolization? (whatcauses the enolate ion to be formed?)

5.) The reaction goes through color change. Why the colorchange happens in this reaction and how can this information isassociated with the (predicted) success of this reaction?
