Answer:

figure is attached

Explanation:

When we treat alcohol with H₂SO₄ we get elimination as the major product.

As we can see in the given reaction that in step 1 the lone pair of electrons of oxygen attached to the alcohol make a bond with the hydrogen of H₂SO₄.

In the 2nd step H₂O gets detached from the parent ring which generated a positive charge on the ring.

In the 3rd step elimination of hydrogen from the carbon next to the carbonium carbon results into formation of an alkene.
