In the presence of an acid catalyst, cyclohexanol (100.16 g/mol) is dehydrated to give cyclohexane (82.14 g/mol) and water. A dehydration reaction starting with 3.53.5 g cyclohexanol produces 2.32.3 g cyclohexene. Calculate the theoretical yield for this reaction. Report your answer with two significant figures.
