Critical temperature of carbon dioxide is the highest temperature at which liquid carbon dioxide is observed. Above this temperature
The rate of dehydration is related to the ease of formation of Carbocation and the energy of the carbocation intermediate. -.
Dehydration involves formation of carbocation 1st and since tertiary carbocation is more stable than secondary and primary therefore 3° is dehydrated first.
The ease of formation of Carbocation is Tertiary>Secondary>Primary.
