Question: What product is formed when each alkene is treated with HCl?

Short Answer

Expert verified

Answer

Step by step solution

01

Hydrohalogenation reaction

The reaction in which the HX molecule is added to the alkene is hydrohalogenation and leads to the formation of an alkyl halide.

02

Products of hydrohalogenation reaction

The weak pi-bond of the alkene is broken alongside the cleavage of a polar sigma bond of H-X. The product consists of two new bonds formed at the position of pi-bonds.

These reactions are called addition reactions.

03

Products of given reactions

Locate the pi-bond and break it to form two new sigma-bonds.
