Answer:   The answer is:

to prevent the British impressment of American sailors

Explanation:

On June 21, 1807 the American warship USS Chesapeake was attacked and boarded on the high seas off the coast of Norfolk, VA[4] by the British warship HMS Leopard. Three Americans were dead and 18 wounded; the British impressed four seamen with American papers as alleged deserters.

The embargo was imposed in response to violations of United States neutrality.
