An iodoalkane A, with a molecular mass of 198, contains 30.3% carbon and 5.6% hydrogen by mass. It reacts with aqueous sodium hydroxide solution to give an alcohol which can be oxidised and with ethanolic potassium hydroxide solution to give two alkenes, neither of which show geometrical isomerism. Identify A and show the elimination reaction and state the products.
I got 2-iodo-3-methylbutane for the first one but the second one I am a bit confused as to what the product looks like and where the hydroxide reacts with the hydrogen
