Part A

$2,4-$Dimethylpent$-2-$ene undergoes an electrophilic addition reaction in the presence of $HBr$ to form $2-$bromo$-2,4-$dimethylpentane. Complete the mechanism of this addition and draw the intermediates formed as the reaction proceeds.

Draw all missing reactants and$/$or products in the appropriate boxes by placing atoms on the canvas and connecting them with bonds. Add charges where needed. Electron flow arrows should start on the electron$($s$)$ of an atom or a bond and should end on an atom, bond, or location where a new bond should be created.
