Question

For each reaction below suggest structures for alkenes that give the indicated reaction products.

There may be more than one answer in some cases

### Reaction Scheme Transcription

**c)**  
This reaction shows the addition of hydrogen bromide (HBr) in the presence of ether to an alkene, leading to the formation of a bromoalkane. In this reaction, the alkene reacts to form a compound where a bromine atom (Br) is bonded to the hydrocarbon chain.

**d)**  
This diagram illustrates a polymerization reaction. Under the influence of heat and a peroxide initiator (ROOR), the styrene monomer units (depicted with a phenyl group, C6H5) undergo polymerization to form a polymer chain. The repeating unit has the structure:

\[ -(\text{CH}_2\text{CHCH}_2\text{CHCH}_2\text{CH}-)_n \]

with the phenyl groups (C6H5) attached to alternating carbon atoms. Here, "n" indicates a large number of repeating units, showcasing the formation of polystyrene.
