Dehydration of Cyclohexanol

At the end of the distillation there is a large amount of non distilled (reacted) cyclohexene in the still pot. A carrier ____________ should be used to extract the final product from the residue that remains in the still pot.

solvent

The loss of ____________ molecules to form the final product in the dehydration of cyclohexanol is the reason this mechanism is called dehydration. Name the specific compounds that is lost.

water

Phosphoric acid is known to be a strong acid

False

•MNO2 species result in a violet pigmentation.

False

Dehydration reactions are a process in which alcohols undergo E1 mechanisum as seen in the dehydration of cyclohexanol.

False

Which of the below procedures might be used to classify cyclohexene in the lab if we decided to validate its successful synthesis.

KMnO4 test

Cyclohexanol is what type of alcohol

Secondary

Fractional distillation ensures the reaction of dehydration of cyclopean runs to completion all while purifying the final product.

True

In the experiment dehydration of cyclohexanol the balanced chemical reaction is 1 mole of alcohol produces 1 mole of alkene

True

The Dehydration reaction can also be called a alkene synthesis reaction as well. Because alcohols are readily used to generate this type of final product.

True

The dehydration reaction of alcohols to generate alkene proceeds by heating the alcohols in the presence of a strong acid, such as sulfuric, at high temperatures.
