(c)
Interpretation: Structure of the alcohol that would be the major product of acid-catalyzed hydration should be written.
Concept introduction:Acid-catalyzed hydration is the electrophilic addition of water. The reactive species that act as a catalyst are
in the first stage. In the second stage, water itself acts as a nucleophile and another water abstracts a proton to give final hydration product as illustrated below.
