Question

Example for reforming

Answer 1

Explanation:

For example, hexane, C6H14, loses hydrogen and turns into benzene. As long as you draw the hexane bent into a circle, it is easy to see what is happening.

Answer 2

Reforming takes straight chain hydrocarbons in the C6 to C8 range from the gasoline or naphtha fractions and rearranges them into compounds containing benzene rings. Hydrogen is produced as a by-product of the reactions. For example, hexane, C6H14, loses hydrogen and turns into benzene.
