Instructions: For each part...Calculate the theoreticalyield and percent yield. Then calculate the overallyield.
I am really struggling with this and have been working on it forawhile. Could you please show a step by step for myunderstanding?

Cyclohexanol: density 0.947 g/cm 3
Part A: dehydration of cyclohexanol
Amount of cyclohexanol used (g): 7.4 g
Amount of cyclohexanol obtained (g): 1.611g
Cyclohexene: molecular weight 82.14 g/mol
Cyclohexene: density 0.81 g/cm 3
Part B: Oxidative Cleavage of Cyclohexene
