What type of reaction takes place when propene is formed from
propanol?
A. Condensation
B. Dehydration
C. Hydration
D. Hydrolysis
E. Oxidation

Hydration

Explanation:

* 2-propanol is converted to propene using heated alumina beads as the catalyst. The product gas is purified with a dry ice–propanol cold trap.

* the propene is hydrogenated to propane using a palladium catalyst in nearly 100% yield

the ideal gas law equation is as follows

pv = nrt

where p - pressure

v - volume

n - number of moles

r - universal gas constant

t - temperature

so if the pressure, volume and temperature are already known

we are left with n and r

since r is the universal gas constant that has a known fixed value then r too is known

so we are left with 'n'

once we know temperature volume and pressure

we can find the number of moles of gas present using the ideal gas law equation
