Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: D
Solution:
$ \underset{Cl\ \ }{\overset{CH_2}{\mathop{\underset{|}{\overset{||}{\mathop{C}}},H}}},+HCl\ \ \ \ \to \underset{\begin{smallmatrix} \\ (\text{1, 1 dichloroethane}) \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{\underset{CH\ ,}{\overset{CH_3}{\mathop{|\ \ \ \ \ }}},<_Cl^{Cl}}}, $ It is addition reaction.
Which is according to Markownikoff rule.
