Answer:

Diff: 2 Section: 8.3 17) Based on the relative stabilities of the intermediates involved, explain the basis for Markovinkov's rule in the addition of hydrogen halides to alkenes. Answer: The rate-determining step in this reaction is the production of a carbocation intermediate. Since this step is endothermic, Hammond's postulate allows one to gauge the relative stabilites of the transition states by comparing the relative stabilities of the carbocation intermediates. The reaction pathway which produces the more substituted carbocation will thus occur more rapidly. Diff: 2 Section: 8.3 18) Draw the major organic product generated in the reaction below.
