A) dehydration reaction
B) dehydrogenation reaction
C) hydrogenation reaction
D) homolytic fission reaction
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
Ethanol, on dehydration in presence of conc. \[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}140{{\,}^{o}}C,\]gives diethyl ether. \[2{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}OH\xrightarrow[140{{\,}^{o}}C]{conc.{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}}\] \[\underset{\text{diethyl}\,\text{ether}}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}-O-{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}}}\,+{{H}_{2}}O\]You need to login to perform this action.
