In the presence of sulfuric acid, this alcohol is dehydrated to form an alkene through an E1 mechanism. In the box, draw the maj
or alkene product of this reaction.
1 answer:
Answer:
figure is attached
Explanation:
When we treat alcohol with H₂SO₄ we get elimination as the major product.
As we can see in the given reaction that in step 1 the lone pair of electrons of oxygen attached to the alcohol make a bond with the hydrogen of H₂SO₄.
In the 2nd step H₂O gets detached from the parent ring which generated a positive charge on the ring.
In the 3rd step elimination of hydrogen from the carbon next to the carbonium carbon results into formation of an alkene.

Answer : The value of for the given reaction is, 0.36
Explanation :
Equilibrium constant : It is defined as the equilibrium constant. It is defined as the ratio of concentration of products to the concentration of reactants.
The equilibrium expression for the reaction is determined by multiplying the concentrations of products and divided by the concentrations of the reactants and each concentration is raised to the power that is equal to the coefficient in the balanced reaction.
As we know that the concentrations of pure solids and liquids are constant that is they do not change. Thus, they are not included in the equilibrium expression.
The given equilibrium reaction is,
The expression of will be,
First we have to calculate the concentration of .
Now we have to calculate the value of for the given reaction.
Therefore, the value of for the given reaction is, 0.36
