Question

What is the product?

**Chemical Reaction Overview** **Reactants:** - **Organic Compound**: Involves a cyclohexane ring with a methyl group (CH₃) attached to one carbon, and a hydroxyl group (OH) as well as another methyl group (CH₃) attached to an adjacent carbon. - **Hydrochloric acid (HCl)** **Condition:** - Heating (indicated by the triangle symbol, Δ) **Reaction Representation:** - The organic reactant (1-methyl-1-cyclohexanol) is shown as a structural formula. - It reacts with hydrochloric acid (HCl). **Explanation of Chemical Notation:** - The cyclohexane ring is a hexagon. - The CH₃ group is attached to one carbon on the ring. - The next carbon on the ring has two substituents: a hydroxyl group (OH) and a CH₃ group. - The "+" denotes a reaction with hydrochloric acid (HCl). - The triangle symbol (Δ) above the arrow indicates that heat is applied to facilitate the reaction. This reaction is likely an example of a dehydration process where an alcohol reacts with an acid under heat to form a different product, such as an alkene or another class of compounds.
