Important question... merchants guess paper says Dehydration.... what are we supposed to know about it reply please????
dehydration is simply the opposite of the hydration of alkenes, eg. wen ethanol is dehydrated, water and ethene are produced:

oh sorry i typed wrong i meant Iodine is the correct answer..
Bromine and Sulphur are incorrect, that's what the examiner report said. no MS available. I think it should be carbon too, was thinking of iodine before, cuz of its proton number :p
