Explanation:
The rate determining step depends on the mechanism of the reaction. If it proceeds by E1 reaction mechanism, it produces 1-methylcyclohexene while the E3 reaction mechanism gives 3-methylcyclohexene. The rate determining step for E1 is an intermediate that is formed when protonation of the hydroxyl group occurs to form H3O+ followed by electrophilic attack on the carbocation formed to absorb the hydrogen making the carbon atom -CH2 and forming a double bond between.
The E3 mechanism is similar only that the attack on the carbon atom is done at the -C3 instead of -C1.
