**Title:** Predicting the Major Product of a Chemical Reaction **Problem Statement:** Draw the major product of this reaction. Ignore byproducts. **Reaction Details:** - **Reactant**: The compound is a cyclohexane ring with a bromomethyl group attached (bromine substituent "Br"). - **Reagent**: Water (H₂O) **Task:** Translate the given chemical equation for the reaction involving the cyclohexylmethyl bromide and water into its major product form. **Diagram Explanation:** There is a representation of a cyclohexyl structure with a bromomethyl group involved in a reaction. The arrow indicates the transformation process, and the dashed rectangular area suggests where the drawn structural formula of the major product should be placed. In this context, the presence of water suggests a nucleophilic substitution or elimination mechanism. You need to determine the most probable outcome when the water reacts with the given brominated compound.
