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.
You might need to take more pictures so we can see all the equations clearly
Answer:
Three possible blood type alleles are Iᴬ, Iᴮ and i
Explanation:
Iᴬ, Iᴮ and i are three possible blood type alleles.
Iᴬ and Iᴮ are known as co-dominant, and The i allele is recessive.
Thus, Three possible blood type alleles are Iᴬ, Iᴮ and i

Answer:- Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles
Solution:- The given balanced equation is:
Al_2(SO_4)_3+6KOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3K_2SO_4
We are asked to calculate the moles of potassium hydroxide needed to completely react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.
From the balanced equation, there is 1:6 mol ratio between aluminium sulfate and potassium hydroxide.
It is a simple mole to mole conversion problem. We solve it using dimensional set up as:
2.94molAl_2(SO_4)_3(\frac{6molKOH}{1molAl_2(SO_4)_3})
= 17.6 mol KOH
So, Third choice is correct, 17.6 moles of potassium hydroxide are required to react with 2.94 moles of aluminium sulfate.
