Conclusions
-
1.
On the basis of an analysis of the distribution of the deforming force among the atoms and bonds during electronic transitions it was shown that the dehydration of ethanol is promoted by capture of an electron from the catalyst by the adsorbed molecule.
-
2.
An electronic mechanism is substantiated for the dehydration of alcohol at aluminum oxide in the reaction of the molecule with an active center of the surface containing a localized electron or in interaction with a molecule of the reaction product adsorbed at an analogous center.
