OH
1
CHO-CH-CH=CH2 + HBr -
1
CH,​

Answer 1

the major product formed in the following reaction is....

Answer 2

Answer:

H2C=CH−CH2−OHHBrexcessCH3−CH∣−CH2−Br

In the above reaction, the alkene reacts with an excess of hydrogen bromide to give the final product. In this double bond is removed & Br is added to its place. Also, −OH is removed for −Br group. It follows Markownikov's Rule for the formation of the product.
