for b I'm not sure which is right answer. I got 3 different answers 1)CH3-CH=CH-CH2-CH3+H2O = CH3-CH-CH2-CH3 | OH 2) 1-pentene + H2O + H2SO4 (catalyst) -> 2-pentanol 3) Step1 CH3CH2CH2CH=CH2 +HBr ---->CH3CH2CH2CH(Br)CH3 [2 bromo pentane];this is Markownikoffs' addition. Step2 CH3CH2CH2CH(Br)CH3+NaOH(aq)---->CH3CH2CH2CH(OH)CH3+NaBr(aq)
