starting with 1-hexene. In the synthesis of 2-hexanol, why did the hydroxyl add to the carbon that it did?

steric hindrance blocked the hydroxyl from adding to carbon 3

steric hindrance blocked the hydroxyl from adding to carbon 1

carbocation formation determined that the hydroxyl added to carbon 2

carbocation formation determined that the hydroxyl added to carbon 1

none of these choices
