Answer 3

A reaction in which the particles are eliminated from a molecule is called an elimination reaction. It occurs during the activity of acids or bases. It can also occur at high temperatures through warming. 

Mechanism of elimination reaction 

It occurs by two mechanisms:

• Dehydrohalogenation
• Dehydration

Types of Elimination Reaction 

The types of elimination reactions are as follows:

• E1 reaction: It is an uni
• molecular elimination, there are normally two-round associated – Deprotonation and Ionization. it has first-order kinetics. The reaction rate is also proportional to the concentration of the substance
• E2 reaction: It is bimolecular elimination is simply one round mechanism. A new double bond is formed after the carbon-halogen and carbon-hydrogen bonds break.
• E1 Conjugate Base (CB) Reaction
