5 0

Answer:

(3S)-2-chloro-2,3-dimethylpentane is produced exclusively.

Explanation:

Electrophilic addition to (3S)-2,3-dimethylpent-1-ene proceeds through a carbocationic intermediate.

In the first step, H^{+} adds onto double bond to produce more stable tertiary carbocation. (protonation)

In the second step, Cl^{-} adds onto carbocation to produce (3S)-2-chloro-2,3-dimethylpentane exclusively.(nucleophilic addition)

So, option (d) is correct.

Carbon atom is tetravalent in nature. How many hydrogen atoms can bind to one carbon atom?
luda_lava [24]
<span>It is said that the carbon atom is a tetra valence which means, it contains 4 covalent bonds that can be bonded with other atoms. Therefore, it needs 4 hydrogen atoms to bind into 1 carbon atom. Carbon Atom contains a total of 6 electrons that occupies the 2 shells which is the K (have 2 electrons) and L (have 4 electrons) shells.  The outermost shell of carbon atoms that contains 4 electrons is called as valence shell. In order to complete its octet, carbon Atom needs other atoms to share their valence electrons.</span>
