Answer:
The major product formed depends on the temperature of the reaction.
At 140 degree Celsius, the product is diethyl ether.
2C2H5OH = C2H5-O-C2H5 + H2O
At a higher temperature of around 170 degree Celsius, ethylene gas is produced.
C2H5OH = C2H4 + H2O.
In both the reactions, conc.H2SO4 acts as a dehydrating agent.
