In general, dehydration of an alcohol provides a product that has a lower boiling point than the alcohol reactant. Why? Check all valid reasons.

1. dehydration lowers the atmospheric humidity, and thus promotes evaporation

2. the intermolecular forces holding alcohol molecules together are stronger, primarily because of dispersion forces

3. the intermolecular forces holding alcohol molecules together are stronger, primarily because of hydrogen bonding

4. the product alkene has a lower molecular weight than the reactant alcohol

predict the products when cyclohexanol is dehydrated?
