Alkanes and Cycloalkanes
Alkanes are saturated organic compounds which are made up of C and H atoms. Alkanes have the general formula of CnH2n+2. Alkane contains sp3 hybridized carbon atoms with four sigmas (σ) bonds & every hydrogen atom is connected with one of the carbon atom…

Chapter 13, Problem 13.65EP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

What occurs when dehydrogenation reaction takes place has to be explained.

Concept Introduction:

Alkenes can be prepared in laboratory using alkane as starting material.  When two hydrogen atoms are lost from alkane, the product alkene is formed in a process known as dehydrogenation.

A dehydrogenation reaction is the one in which the hydrogen atom is lost from each of two adjacent carbon atoms resulting in formation of a carbon‑carbon double bond.

In this process there is no change in the carbon chain.
