Explanation:
Propan-2-ol can be dehydrated to give propene by heating it with an excess of concentrated sulphuric acid at about 170°C. Concentrated phosphoric(V) acid, H3PO4, can be used instead. ... Notice that the -OH group is lost, together with a hydrogen from a next-door carbon - it doesn't matter which one.
