Question

The following questions are for the dehydration of cyclohexanol. (MW=molecular weight) Starting with 2.10 g of cyclohexanol, what is the theoretical yield of cyclohexane in mol (do not add the units to these answers)? What is the theoretical yield in g? The amount of product obtained after the final distillation is 1.55. Assuming that the distillate is pure cyclohexane, what is the % yield of product? If gas chromatography of the distillate showed that the purity of product was 0.910, what is the % yield of pure cyclohexane?
