Expert Solution

Step 1

This is a addition type of reaction in which hydrogen halide is added to the alkenes. The intermediate for this reaction is a stable carbocation. In this reaction there is a rearrangement of 2° carbocation to 3° carbocation as 3° carbocation is more stable than 2° and 1° carbocation. The major product will obtain when the intermediate is more stable therefore in this reaction rearrangement take place. The mechanism for this reaction to predict the major product in given in a attached image.
