Ethanol can undergo various reactions. Depending on the reagents and conditions of the reaction, products with different functional groups can be formed.

Table 2 summarizes the conditions and products of two reactions of ethanol. Complete Table 2 by inserting the reaction conditions and drawing the fully displayed structure of the products which would be formed. Take note that the type of product to be formed is given in the table.
