Answer:
See explanation and image attached
Explanation:
The addition of a halohydrin to an alkene proceeds via the bromium cyclic intermediate.
The bromine dissociates heterolytically and attacks the (E)-2-hexene yielding the brominuim ion intermediate. This is now attacked by water with a consequent loss of H^+ to yield the final product.
Since the reaction involves a flat and planar carbocation intermediate, racemization is possible, thereby leading to the two stereoisomers shown in the image attached to this answer.
