Complete the mechanism for the reaction of 2-butanol in sulfuric acid at 140 °C by adding any missing atoms, bonds, charges, non
bonding electrons, and curved arrows. Note the use of a generic alcohol to represent another 2-butanol introduced in panel three.

Answer:
2-Butene
Explanation:
The first step is the <u>ionization</u> of the acid to produce the hydronium ion. Then the OH will attack this ion to produce a <u>charged species</u> that can be stabilized when <u>H2O is produced</u>.
Then an <u>elimination</u> takes place to produce the more <u>substituted alkene</u> 2-butene and the <u>hydronium ion</u> is gain produced.

x2=x+2 at x=−1 and x=2 so we have no need to worry about the end-points
f(x)=x+2−x^2
df/dx=1–2x
and that is zero (indicating a maximum) at x=1/2
So the maximum distance is f(1/2)=2.5–0.25=2.25
