**Educational Exercise on Hydration Reactions and Markovnikov's Rule**

**Question 9:**
The addition of a water molecule to 3,4-dimethylcyclohexene yields two possible isomers. Sketch both possible products below:

![Diagram of 3,4-dimethylcyclohexene reacting with H2O is shown]

- The first image depicts a structural diagram of 3,4-dimethylcyclohexene with a double bond and two methyl groups attached.
- The reaction with water (H2O) leads to two possible products, due to the formation of different isomers based on the location of the hydroxyl group attachment.

**Question 10:**
Why are two products formed in reaction 9 and only one in reaction 8?

- The explanation can be attributed to the nature of the chemical structure and reaction mechanisms. Multiple products are possible in reaction 9 due to the formation of isomers from a symmetrical unsaturated compound, while a unique product results from a non-isomeric addition in reaction 8.

**Question 11:**
Use Markovnikov's rule to predict the main hydration product of each alkene illustrated below.

![Three structural diagrams are shown]

1. The first diagram depicts an alkene with a double bond, where Markovnikov's rule suggests that the hydrogen from water will add to the carbon with more hydrogen atoms, and the hydroxyl group will attach to the carbon with fewer hydrogen atoms.
  
2. The second diagram illustrates another alkene structure with branched carbon chains where the main product is predicted similarly by following Markovnikov's rule.
  
3. The third diagram is a cyclic structure where the rule also applies to predict the major product formed after hydration.
