The reaction is given below.

Explanation:

The compound (c⁴h⁸) is 2-methylpropene.

When it reacts with hydro-chloric acid it forms 2-methyl-2-chloropropane.

The reaction is given below.

Its structural formula is:

         CH3                                     CH3                                     CH3

           |                                            |                                             |

CH3 - C = CH2   + HCl ----> CH3 - C - CH3  + H2O ----> CH3 - C - CH3

                                                        |                                             |

                                                       Cl                                         OH

The resulting product in the first step is 2-methyl-2-chloropropane and in the second step when it reacts with water to form 2-methyl-2-propanol.
