The following reaction is an example of
`H-underset("Ethanol")(underset(H)underset(|)overset(H)overset(| beta)(C)-underset(OH)underset(|)overset(H)overset(| alpha)(C))-Hunderset(Delta)overset(Conc. H_(2)SO_(4))rarr underset("Ethene")(CH_(2)==)CH_(2)+H_(2)O`

A

oxidation reaction

B

reduction reaction

C

`alpha`- eliminaiton reaction

D
