Explanation:

An acid is a substance that produces excess hydroxonium ions in solution.

An acid based on the pH scale is a substance that has a low pH. Acid lies within a range of 1-7 on the pH scale.

A pH of 7 is for neutral compounds like water.
A pH greater that 7 is for basic compounds.
In order to raise the pH, we are driving at a substance becoming more neutral or basic.

This can be achieved by adding more base to the solution of the substance. When we add more base, hydroxyl ions will neutralize the excess hydroxonium ions and drag the pH towards that of neutrality.

Addition of more base can eventually make the substance basic.

Reaction of HBr with 3-methylcyclohexene yields a mixture of four products cis-and trans-1-bromo-3-methylcyclohexane and cis-and

Umnica [9.8K]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

The mechanism of this reaction including intermediates are shown in the image attached to this answer.

The reaction of HBr with 3-bromocyclohexene yields trans-1,2-dibromocyclohexane as the sole product because; the proton first attacks the 3-bromocyclohexene and a brominium ion is formed. This brominium ion is a cyclic intermediate as shown in the image attached.

Attack of a bromine ion afterwards must lead to the formation of trans-1,2-dibromocyclohexane as shown.
