We have that the the liquid is
- C_2H_5OH (ethanol
- And at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170
From the question we are told
- A student wished to prepare <em>ethylene </em>gas by <em>dehydration </em>of ethanol at 140oC using sulfuric acid as the <em>dehydrating </em>agent.
- A low-boiling liquid was obtained instead of ethylene.
- What was the liquid, and how might the reaction conditions be changed to give ethylene
<h3>
Ethylene formation</h3>
Generally the equation is
2C_2H_5OH------CH3CH_2O-CH_2CH_3+H_20
Therefore
with ethanol at 140oC
The product is diethyl ethen
The reaction at 170 ethylene will give
C_2H_5OH-------CH_2=CH_2+H_2O( at a condition of H_2SO4 as catalyst and temp 170)
Therefore
The the liquid is

Hi, you've asked an incomplete question. However, I assumed you are referring to the article found on the Scientific American website.
Explanation:
<em>Remember,</em> according to that article we are told that scientists notice that these insects have a long nymphal (immature form before becoming adults) stage, one that can last up to 13 to 17 years on the ground before they leave the ground looking for mating partners.
Because it is only after mating occurs at this point that their eggs are laid, that is why scientists believe that cicadas only reproduce every 13 or 17 years.
they pair up with other bases to make up the rungs of the DNA ladder
The answer is true. It is the last star.
The correct answer to your question is: <span>C) tin (IV) bromide, SnBr₄</span>
