Concept introduction:
The hydration reaction of alkene is an addition of water molecule on the alkene to give back alcohol as a product. This reaction proceeds via the formation of carbocation intermediate in the first step by the abstraction of a proton from the solution. The stability of carbocation is responsible for the rate of reaction.
