Yes, if you're so inclined...you use sulfuric acid to dehydrate ethanol, and ethylene is left.
The problem with doing it that way is there is so much ethylene made in petrochemical plants - according to Wikipedia, there were 117 companies in 55 countries making it, and more production is coming on line every year - that it's simply more efficient to buy it from your local chemical company.
What else can I help you with?
Is Ethylene glycol secondary alcohol?
NO! Ethylene glycol is deadly poisonous even in relatively small amounts. Ethylene glycol is not ethyl alcohol, which is the only alcohol humans (or animals) can safely drink.
If you boil ethyl alcohol does the chemical structure change?
No. The chemical structure of ethyl alcohol gas is the same as ethyl alcohol liquid.
The type of alcohol used in beverage?
Ethanol (or ethyl alcohol)
How many ethene be converted into ethyl alcohol?
One. Ethene [also ethylene] [H2C=CH2] plus H2O yields H3C-CH2OH [ethanol].
Why is ethyl alcohol neutral?
ethyl alcohol is neutral due to inductive effect
Chemical reactions of ethylene from ethyl alcohol and sulfuric acid?
Ethanol can be dehydrated to form ethylene using concentrated sulfuric acid as a catalyst. Sulfuric acid aids in the removal of water molecules from ethanol, leading to the formation of ethylene gas. This reaction is commonly used in the industrial production of ethylene.
What is ethyl alcohol made of?
Alcohol
What do you use for perfume spray rubbing alcohol or ethyl alcohol?
For perfumes the most used solvent is the ethyl alcohol.
What are kinds of alcohols?
There are three types of alcohols, ethyl alcohol, propyl alcohol and methyl alcohol. Ethyl alcohol is the type that is consumed.
Is ethyl organic or inorganic?
ethyl alcohol is organic
How is propane prepared from ethyl bromide?
Propane is prepared from ethyl bromide through a series of chemical reactions. Ethyl bromide is first treated with metallic sodium to form diethyl ether. This diethyl ether is then dehydrated to form ethylene, and ethylene is subsequently hydrogenated to produce propane.
How will you convert ethyl bromide into butane?
Ethyl bromide can be converted into butane through a series of steps involving elimination reactions. The ethyl bromide can be treated with a strong base, such as sodium ethoxide, to form ethylene gas. Ethylene gas can then be subjected to a hydrogenation reaction to produce butane.
