yep..
When HOCl is added to CHCH , CH2ClCHO is formed. But how is HOCl added to CH3CCH ?
I'm not sure about propyne as it is unsymmetric and whether Markonikoff's rule is used or not.
How is this reaction affected by the +I effect or -I effect?

there's a correction in the above question. I've written CH2ClCHO. But it will be CHCl2CHO.

basically make sure the carbocation intermidiate is most stable .... it will take care of every thing ......
