Problem- a researcher attempted this reaction with h2so4


Problem- A researcher attempted this reaction with H2SO4 instead of H3PO4 and noticed a 3rd product. How did this product form from just switching the acid catalyst?

The E1 reaction for the lab

2-methylcyclohexanol with H3PO4 to make 2-methycyclohexane product. The H3PO4 solution will instead be H2SO4.

I need help for above question. Show each steps for the above problem.
