Two students each make a statement about 2-methylbut-1-ene. Student 1 states that 2-methylbut-1-ene has geometrical isomers. Student 2 states that 2-methylbut-1-ene reacts with $$\(\mathrm{HBr}\)$$ in an addition reaction to give 1-bromo-2-methylbutane as the main product. Which students are correct?
A.
