Conc- Sulphuric acid is a dehydrating agent which causes the dehydration of the cane sugar to sugar charcoal-xA0- -xA0- -xA0- -xA0-xA0-C12H22O11conc-H2SO4-x2212-x2212-x2212-x2212-x2212-x2212-x2212-x2192-12C-11H2OTherefore- option A is correct-

Conc. Sulphuric acid is a dehydrating agent which causes the dehydration of the cane sugar to sugar charcoal. C12H22O11conc.H2SO4−−−−−−−→12C+11H2OTherefore, option A is correct.

Conc. Sulphuric acid is a dehydrating agent which causes the dehydration of the cane sugar to sugar charcoal.

$C_{12} H_{22} O_{11} c o n c . H_{2} S O_{4} - ------ \to 12 C + 11 H_{2} O$

Therefore, option A is correct.
