Answer:
See explanation
Explanation:
The mechanism for the formation of bromohexane from hexene has been clearly shown in the image attached to this answer.
Hexene is attacked by HBr and a carbocation is first formed as shown. The carbocation is flat and planar. it can be attacked on either face by the bromide ion.
Attack on either faces yields a racemic mixture of the R and S enantiomer as shown in the image.
You can use the mechanism shown to fill in the structures.
