A) passing ethanol over heated alumina
B) heating sodium ethoxide with ethyl bromide
C) treating ethyl alcohol with excess of\[{{H}_{2}}S{{O}_{4}}\]at 430-440 K
D) heating ethanol with dry\[A{{g}_{2}}O\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
\[\underset{Sodium\text{ }ethoxide}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}ONa}}\,+\underset{\begin{smallmatrix} Bromo \\ ethane \end{smallmatrix}}{\mathop{{{C}_{2}}{{H}_{5}}Br}}\,\xrightarrow[synthesis]{Williamsons}\] \[\underset{Ethoxyethane}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}}}\,+NaBr\]
