**Dehydrohalogenation (E2) Reaction:**

**Question:**
For the dehydrohalogenation (E2) reaction shown, draw the major organic product, including stereochemistry.

**Reaction Details:**

- **Left Side:**
  - Structure: A compound with a chlorine (Cl) atom attached to a carbon. The carbon also has two hydrogen atoms (H) attached with one shown as a wedge (up) and the other as a dash (down).
  - Labels: "Cl" indicates the chlorine atom and the two wedge and dash lines indicate the stereochemistry involving the hydrogen atoms.

- **Reaction Arrow:**
  - Indicating conversion using a reagent (CH₃)₃COK (potassium tert-butoxide) in (CH₃)₃COH (tert-butanol).

- **Right Side:**
  - Structure: An alkene with a double bond between two carbon atoms and branches, indicative of the major product formed in this E2 reaction.

**Diagram Explanation:**
The diagram includes both the reactant and the major product structure. The reactant shows the stereochemistry of the hydrogen atoms and the chlorine, essential for understanding the E2 reaction mechanism. The product shows the double bond formed after the elimination of the halogen and a hydrogen.

**Controls:**
- Navigation tools such as "Select," "Draw," "Rings," and "More" are displayed on the interface for constructing the chemical structures digitally.
- An "Erase" button is available for editing or correcting the drawing.
