A compound 'X' on heating with excess conc. sulphuric acid at 443 K gives an unsaturated compound 'Y'. 'X' also reacts with sodium metal to evolve a colourless gas 'Z'. Identify 'X' 'Y' and 'Z'. Write the equation of the chemical reaction of formation of 'Y' and also write the role of sulphuric acid in the reaction.

X is Ethaneol.
Y is ethene.
Z is Hydrogen .
CH3 -CH2-OH in presence of H2SO4 gives CH2=CH2 + H20
sulphuric acid is an dehydrating agent.

Z is hydrogen gas
Ur reaction is in photo
and role of sulphuric acid is
It acts as an dehydrating agent which removes water from ethanol
