The representation is showing potassium atom (K) and Chlorine atom (Cl) when it ought to show their ions i.e potassium ion (K⁺) and Chlorine ion (Cl¯)

<h3>Dissociation equation for KCl</h3>

When potassium chloride, KCl dissolves in water, it dissociate to produce potassium ion (K⁺) and Chlorine ion (Cl¯) as shown below:

KCl(aq) —> K⁺(aq) + Cl¯(aq)

The representation given in the question is only showing potassium atom (K) and Chlorine atom (Cl). This makes it wrong as dissolution of ionic compounds in water will results in the corresponding ions of the element that makes up the compound

Draw the major 1,2- and 1,4-addition products that form as a result of the following reaction between one equivalent each of 2,4

lapo4ka [179]

The major 1,2- and 1,4-addition products are 4-Bromo-2-hexene and 2-Bromo-2-hexene.

What is Markovnikov Rule ?

Markovnikov rule explains that in addition reaction of alkene react with a hydrogen halide. The hydrogen atom is attached to the carbon atom that is already bonded to the greatest number of hydrogen.

<h3>What is Addition Reaction ?</h3>

An addition reaction is an organic reaction occur when two or more molecules combine to form a larger molecule without the loss of any atoms present in reactant.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The major 1,2- and 1,4-addition products are 4-Bromo-2-hexene and 2-Bromo-2-hexene.
