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