Question
**Question:** Which alcohol is formed from the acid-catalyzed hydration of the following alkene?

**Reaction Scheme:**

\[ \text{Alkene:} \quad \]
\[ \text{H}_3\text{C} \text{C} = \text{C} \text{H}_ \]
\[ \text{H} \quad \text{H CH}_2\text{CH}_3 \]

**Reagents:**

- \(\text{H}_2\text{O} + \text{H}_2\text{SO}_4\)

**Products:**

1. \(\text{HO}-\text{C}-\text{C}-\text{CH}_3\)
   \[ \text{H CH}_2\text{CH}_3 \]
   \[\text{H}\]

2. \(\text{HO}-\text{C}-\text{C}-\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\)
   \[ \text{H CH}_3 \]
   \[\text{H}\]

3. \(\text{H}-\text{C}-\text{C}-\text{OH}\)
   \[ \text{H CH}_3 \]
   \[\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\]

4. \(\text{HO} \text{C} = \text{C} \text{H}_3\)
   \[\text{H}\]
   \[\text{CH}_2\text{CH}_3\]

**Question:**

Select one:
- a. 1
- b. 2
- c. 3
- d. 4

**Instructions for Students:**
Review the structure of each alcohol product carefully. Consider the mechanism of acid-catalyzed hydration of alkenes to predict which product forms. Decide which number corresponds to the correct product and select the appropriate option.
