First, recognize that this is an elimination reaction in which hydroxide must leave and a double bond must form in its place. It is likely an E2 reaction. Here is an efficient mechanism:
1) Pre-reaction: Protonate the -OH to make it a good leaving group, water. H2SO4 or any strong H+ donor works. The water is positively charged but still connected to the compound.
2) E2: Use a sterically hindered base, such as tert-butoxide (tButO-) to abstract the hydrogen from the secondary carbon. [You want a sterically hindered base because a strong, non-sterically hindered base could also abstract a hydrogen from one of the two methyl groups on the tertiary carbon, and that leads to unwanted products, which is not efficient]. As the proton of hydrogen is abstracted, water leaves at the same time, creating an intermediate tertiary carbocation, and the 2 electrons in the C-H bond immediately are used to make a double bond towards the partial positive charge.
In the products we see the major product and water, as expected. Even though you have an intermediate, remember that an E2 mechanism technically happens in one step after -OH protonation.
<u>Stimulants </u> often cause overactive eye movement
Ans (A)
Stimulants are a class of psychoactive drugs that increase the brain activity. They work by acting on the central nervous system and increase the level of mental alertness and impart heightened cognitive functions. Stimulants like nicotine and cocaine cause overactive eye movement.
You got the answer correct. If you would double check
given:C (12 g/mol) H (1 g/mol).
12(8) + 1(8) = 104 g/mol
and for C2H4
12(2)+1(4) = 28g/mol

35°c is equal to 95°f
To do this multiply 35 and 1.8
35 x 1.8=63
Now add 32
Resulting in the answer 95
(The equation for to solve for c and f is c1.8+32=f
