What is the Major product for each of the following reactions

Transcribed Image Text:### Organic Reaction Problems
The image contains three organic chemistry reaction problems labeled as a, b, and c.
#### a.)
- **Starting Material:** A hydrocarbon chain with an internal double bond (alkene).
- **Reagent:** Hydrogen iodide (HI).
**Task:** Predict the product formed when the alkene reacts with HI.
#### b.)
- **Starting Material:** A compound containing two six-membered rings (cycloalkanes) connected by a double bond.
- **Reagents:** Hydrogen bromide (HBr) in the presence of a peroxide (ROOR).
**Task:** Determine the product in an anti-Markovnikov addition of HBr due to the peroxide effect (free radical mechanism).
#### c.)
- **Starting Material:** A diene, which is a hydrocarbon with two double bonds.
- **Reagent:** Bromine (Br₂) in the presence of water (H₂O).
**Task:** Predict the product of a halohydrin formation, where Br₂ and H₂O add across one of the double bonds in the presence of water.
These reaction schemes illustrate typical transformations in organic chemistry using different reagents and conditions, highlighting concepts like Markovnikov's rule, anti-Markovnikov addition, and halohydrin formation.
