- Write the mechanism of dehydration of ethyl alcohol with conc. H$_2$SO$_4$ at 413 K.
- Give a simple chemical test to distinguish between 3-pentanol and 2-pentanol.
Alcohols undergo a number of reactions involving the cleavage of C – OH bond. However, phenols do not undergo reactions involving the cleavage of C – OH bond. Alcohols are weaker acids than water. Alcohols react with halogen acids to form the corresponding haloaklanes. Phenols are stronger acids than alcohols. A charac- teristic feature of phenols is that they undergo electrophilic substitution reactions such as halogenation, nitration, etc. Since –OH group is a strong activating group, phenol gives trisubstituted products during halogenation, nitration, etc.

- Solutions
For a first order decomposition of a certain reaction, rate constant is given by the equation
\(\log k(s⁻¹) = 7.14 - \frac{1 \times 10^4 K}{T}\). The activation energy of the reaction (in kJ mol⁻¹) is (\(R = 8.3 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹\))
Note: The provided value for R is 8.3. We will use the more precise value R=8.314 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹ for accuracy, as is standard.- TS EAMCET - 2025

What is Alcohol?
Alcohol is a derivative of water (H2O) that has one, two, or more hydroxyl groups that are attached to a carbon atom of a hydrocarbon chain (an alkyl group). It is one of the most common organic compounds used in sweeteners, fragrances, and medicine.

Uses of Alcohol:
- Ethanol is the alcohol used in alcoholic drinks. It can be used as an industrial methylated spirit where methanol is used very little in quantity as it can be dangerous.
- It is used as fuel to produce carbon dioxide and water by the process of fermentation. Whereas methanol burns carbon dioxide and water to facilitate combustion.
- Alcohol is an organic compound used as a solvent that is insoluble in water.
- It can be used to lower the level of sugar.
- Alcohol is used as a preservative in laboratories.
