1.	The mechanism of the reaction of propene with HOCI (Cl_2 + H_2O)will proceed through which of the following intermediates?
Answer» `CH_3 - overset(oplus)(CH)-CH_2OH` `CH-3-overset(oplus)(CH)-CH_2Cl` `CH_3-overset(OH)(CH)-overset(oplus)(C)H_3` `CH_3-overset(Cl)(CH)-overset(oplus)(C)H_2` SOLUTION :The CHLORINE atom has the LESSER electronegativity and is the electrophile and the carbocation in this intermediate has the GREATER number of hyperconjugation resonance forms.
