Concept: 

Bromination of Alkene: The reaction mechanism for an alkene bromination follows two steps.

In the first step of the reaction, a bromine molecule approaches the electron-rich alkene carbon–carbon double bond.

In  the second step,  a negative bromide anion and is attracted to the slight positive charge on the carbon atoms.

For example follow the following reaction as a sample answer.
