Just give me a sec...

OpenStudy (grimsnightmare):

I think it's your second option.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

The answer is both 1 and 2. How did you get 2?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh i got it about 2 i think ethanol get dehydrated by h2so4 to give ethene and as its symmetrical it will oxidiese to give aldehyde i didn,t realise that it was symmetrical

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Now fo 1

OpenStudy (grimsnightmare):

I just asked someone really good with this stuff. I keep cutting in and out of WiFi so sorry if I can't respond quickly.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what is the question ?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I attached it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ik but what u want to know both the options a and b are correct

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I know the part where concentrated suplhuric acid dehydrates ethanol to ethene and i know that hydrigen bromide will react with ethene to give bromo ethane will sodium bromide react wuth ethene just like hydrogen bromide?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

KBr + h2so4 gives Hbr and Hbr reacts with ethyl alcohol to give ethyl bromide

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So NaBr reacts the same like KBr because they're in the same group right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Ohh! I only studied the reaction of ethene with HBr so i got confused thankyou so much !!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i studied it with kbr :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):
