When Glycerol treated with dehydrating agents like H2SO4,
P2O5 or KHSO4 then it undergoes dehydration
and remove all the water molecules to give unsaturated Aldehyde named Acrolein.

What is the product formed when glycerol react with Excess HI?
Reaction of glycerol with limited amount of warmed HI gives allyl iodide.
While in the presence of excess
amount of HI, then allyl iodide reduced
to propene, which further reacts with HI and forms isopropyle iodide.

What is Noble’s oil and how can obtained from glycerol/glycerine?
Nitroglycerine or glyceryl trinitrate is known as Noble’s oil because it is discovered
by Alfred Noble and
it is an explosive.
A mixture of glyceryl
trinitrate and glyceryl dinitrate and Kieselguhr (a kind of porous Clay) is
called dynamite

What are different products obtained when glycerol is heated with oxalic acid at different temperature?
(1) At 372 K to 383 K:
When
glycerol is heated with oxalic acid at 373-383K (100–110°C) temperature formic acid
is produced and here probably glycerol act as catalyst.
When
glycerol is heated with oxalic acid at 373-383K (100–110°C) temperature formic acid
is produced as one of the product along with regenerating glycerol.
The entire
reaction proceed via formation of glycerol mono oxalate, decarboxylation and elimination
of H2O.
(2) At 503 K to 553 K:
When glycerol is heated with oxalic
acid at higher temperature nearly 503 K to 553K (230-280°C) oxalic acid and glycerol react with each other to produce
an allyl
alcohol which is also produced via decarboxylation and elimination of H2O.

Westron
(Tetrachloroethane) is a heavy in-flammable liquid (CHCl2CHCl2)
and used as a solvent of rubber, varnish, paint and fats etc.
While Westrosol is Trichloroethene (CHCI=CCl2) and used in dry-washing of cloths.
