The addition of HCl to an alkene follows Markovnikov's rule, where the hydrogen atom attaches to the carbon with the greater number of hydrogen atoms, and the chlorine atom attaches to the other carbon atom in the double bond. This results in a halogenated alkane. In this case, the correct product is CH₃-CHCl-CH₃, which corresponds to option D.
