Answer:

Chlorine ion will attack the carbocation and double bond will not be created

Explanation:

The use of concentrated hydrochloric acid wiill be a poor choice as the acid catalyst for the formation of cyclohexane by dehydration of cyclohexanol because of the following reasons:

1) There will be presence of chlorine ions and they will attack the carbocation to form a single bond.

2) The formation of double bond will not occur in the process.

Therefore, it is a poor choice to use concentrated hydrochloric acid as the acid catalyst for the formation of cyclohexane by dehydration of cyclohexanol.
