Question

According to Markovnikov's rule of the electrophilic addition to an alkene, the electrophile, usually a proton, is more likely to add to the ___________ in a double bond. This arrangement places the intermediate carbocation on the ________ , which stabilizes it with the presence of _________. In the major product of a reaction following Markovnikov's rule, the___________ will then end up on the more-substituted carbon in a double

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

To fill in the gaps with the appropriate words, we need to rewrite the whole text in the question while adding the right answers to it.

`According \ to \ Markovnikov's \ rule \ of \ the \ electrophilic \ addition \ to \ an \ alkene, \\ \\ the \ electrophile, \ usually, \ a \ proton, \ is \ more \ likely \ to \ add \ to \ the \ \mathbf{less \ substituted \ carbon} \\ \\ \ in \ a \ double \ bond.`

`This \ arrangement \ place \ the \ intermediate \ carbocation \ on \ the \ \mathbf{more \ substituted \ carbon.}`
`Which \ stabilizer \ it \ with \ the\ presence \ of \ \mathbf{more \ substituents} \ the \ major \ product \ of`

`the \ reaction \ following \ markovnikov \ rules \ the \ \mathbf{nucleophile} \ will \ then \ end \ up`

`with \ the \ m ore \ substituted \ carbon \ in \ the \ double \ bond.`
