The additions of HCl to an alkene proceeds in two steps. The first step is the attack of `H^(+)` ion to portion which can be shown as

A

B

C

D

All of these are possible

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

Step I : `pi` -bonds creates an electron cloud
Electrophile `(H^(+) C)` from H-Cl attacts the electron cloud , delocalising the electrons . And a carbocation is formed .
