Solution : The correct answer is Markovnikov’s rule .
Certain chemical addition reactions can be described by Markovnikov's rule, commonly referred to as Markovnikov's rule. As per this rule, the carbon (C) atom with fewer hydrogen atoms is bound by the nucleophilic X-, whereas the carbon atom with more hydrogen atoms attached to it is bound by the proton.
