Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To determine which alkene allows for the easiest addition of HBr, we need to analyze the stability of the carbocation formed during the reaction. The more stable the carbocation, the easier the addition of HBr will occur. Here’s a step-by-step breakdown of the solution: ### Step 1: Understand the Mechanism of HBr Addition The addition of HBr to an alkene involves two main steps: 1. Protonation of the alkene to form a carbocation. 2. Nucleophilic attack of Br- on the carbocation to form the alkyl bromide.
