An elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which an elimination reaction can best be described as a reaction in which a hydrocarbon reacts with oxygen to produce co2, h2o, and energy. two reactants combine to form one new product with no extra atoms. a single reactant splits into two products. two reactants exchange atoms to give two new products. a single reactant undergoes reorganization of its chemical bonds, producing an isomer of the reactant.

    So I’m not 100% sure what you’re asking but I’m going to give it a go. The elimination reaction is a term used in organic chemistry that describes a type of reactions. The name kinda tells you what’s going to happen. Something is going to be removed/eliminated from initial reactant/substrate and as a result, an alkene (double bond containing compound) will form.

    In elimination reactions a hydrogen atom is first removed (as a H+) from the beta carbon. As a result, the left behind electrons create a pi bond between the beta carbon and the neighboring alpha carbon. This promotes the electronegative atom, on the alpha carbon, to leaves the substrate taking both electrons from the shared sigma bond with the alpha carbon.
