Name the compound formed when ethanol is heated in excess of conc. sulphuric acid at 443 K. Also write the chemical equation of the reaction stating the role of conc. sulphuric acid in it. What would happen if hydrogen is added to the product of this reaction in the presence of catalysts such as palladium or nickel?

Hey buddy...
Ethene is formed when ethanol is heated at 443k in excess of conc. H2SO4.
C2H5OH ------in the presence of hot conc. H2SO4-----> C2H4 + H2O.
Conc. H2SO4 is used as a catalyst.
When hydrogen gas is added to it addition reaction taken place.. ( plz refer to the picture given below..)
Hope this helps...
