Answer:
The dehydration of alcohols can be affected by two common methods. By passing the vapors of an alcohol over heated alumina. By heating an alcohol with concentrated mineral acid, such as concentrated H2SO4 or concentrated H3PO4. Anhydrous zinc chloride can also be used as a dehydrating agent.
