(a) Assuming that the rate-determining elementary step in the reaction of trans-4-methylcyclohexanol with hydrogen bromide is unimolecular, write an equation for this step. Use curved arrows to show electron flow.


(b) Two stereoisomers of 1-bromo-4-methylcyclohexane are formed when trans-4-methylcyclohexanol reacts with hydrogen bromide. Write a separate equation for the elementary step that gives each stereoisomer.
