Among the following compounds which can be dehydrated very easily is:A. `{:(" "CH_(3)),(" |"),(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-C-CH_(2)-CH_(3)),(" |"),(" "OH):}`B. `{:(" "OH),(" |"),(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH-CH_(3)):}`C. `CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-OH`D. `{:(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-CH-CH_(2)-CH_(2)-OH),(" |"),(" "CH_(3)):}`

Answer» Correct Answer - A
`{:(" "CH_(3)" "CH_(3)),(" |"" |"),(CH_(3)-CH_(2)-C-CH_(2)-CH_(3) overset(H^(+))rarrCH_(3)-CH_(2)-underset(o+)(C)-CH_(2)-CH_(3)),( " |"),(" "OH):}`
The more stable carbocation is generated thus more easily it will be dehydrated.
