Deforestation, Desertification and Urbanization are very closely related phenomenon whose cause and effects are briefly discussed below.
<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
Deforestation is caused due to cutting of trees for economic purposes and other poachers.
Deforestation effects the natural habitat of the animals of forests leading to endangering of different plants and animals. It also reduces diversity of environment, causes global warming, change in climate, rainfall patterns etc.
Desertification is caused due to deforestation, due to natural calamities like forest fires, overgrazing and even due to over population.
Desertification causes a huge loss to environment. Erosion of soil, deepening of ground water levels, loss of rainfall, draught are common. Rise in temperature and change of climates are also seen.
Urbanisation is caused by main two reasons - over population and rural to urban migration of people.
Urbanization has several good effects like growth of technologies etc. But it also increases disease rates due to increase in pollution. Several mental stress and depression are also seen to affect urban people more than rural ones.
Ethanol is a substituted hydrocarbon. The "ol" suffix used in ethanol is for the functional group -OH, or alochol group. When any functional group is attached to a pure hydrocarbon, that hydrocarbon shows properties of that functional group.
For ethane as well, which have molecular formula of C2H6, when one hydrogen is substituted by one -OH group it becomes C2H5OH which we call as ethanol or ethyl alcohol. If two hydrogen are substituted, it becomes -diol and as such.
There are number of ways to prepare ethanol by pure hydrocarbon. Generally ethanol can be prepared by fermentation of starch and molasses. Also various organic reaction gives ethanol as product. When ethene is reacted with steam catalysed by phosphoric acid.
