Explanation:
⟶ In an elimination reaction we typically have a leaving group (denoted by "X" in the figure below), The carbon that the leaving group is attached to is referred to as the "alpha" carbon. If a hydrogen is removed from the "beta" carbon, then we have formed an olefin and the reaction is called a beta elimination.
