Question

what is ethanol state its two property what happened when it is heated with excess of concentration H2S o4 at 4443 Kelvin what role does concentrated H2 S o4 played in the question write the chemical equation of the reaction involved and the structural formula of the main product formed​

Answer 1

Ethanol is a chemical compound, a simple alcohol with the chemical formula C ₂H ₅OH. Its formula can be also written as CH ₃−CH ₂−OH or C ₂H ₅−OH, and is often abbreviated as EtOH. Ethanol is a volatile, flammable, colorless liquid with a slight characteristic odor.

Formula: C2H5OH

Boiling point: 78.37 °C

Molar mass: 46.07 g/mol

Answer 2

ethanol is a hydrocarbon C2 h5 0h. it has a pleasant smell and is flammable. when it is heated with concentrated H2 s o4 , Audi hydration reaction takes place and ethane is formed.

C2H5OH--concH2So4+443K--CH2=CH2+ H2O

ETHENE IS FOUND
