Question

When excess of C2H5OH at 1400C reacts with concentrated H2SO4, the product obtained is:
  1. diethyl sulphate
  2. diethyl ether
  3. ethylene
  4. ethylene hydrogen sulphate

A
diethyl ether
B
ethylene
C
diethyl sulphate
D
ethylene hydrogen sulphate
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Ethyl alcohol gives diethyl ether by acid -catalysed condensation reaction.

C2H5OH+HOC2H5conc.H2SO4−−−−−−140CC2H5OC2H5+H2O
