What would the alkane version of the 4,5,5-trimethyl-1-hexyne be when using two equivalent HBr?
The triple bond must turn into a double bond when using one HBr equivalent. The end product will be an alkene.
The alkene is then turned into an alkane using the last HBr equivalent.

I'm really glad you chose to demonstrate this problem. I have struggled with chapter 7!! This had clarified this reaction for me a lot.
