### Exercise: Identifying Missing Compounds in a Chemical Reaction

In this task, you are provided with a chemical reaction where either a reactant (X) or the major organic product is missing. Your objective is to draw the missing compound.

**Chemical Reaction Provided:**
- **Reactants:** 
  - A cyclohexane ring with a side chain containing CH₂CH₂OH
  - Hydrogen gas (H₂)

- **Catalyst:**
  - Palladium on carbon (Pd/C)

- **Direction of Reaction:**
  - The reaction arrow indicates that the reaction progresses from left to right, towards the product.

**Instructions:**
- **Stereochemistry Consideration:** Not required for this exercise.
- **Multiple Answers:** If there is a missing reactant, multiple possibilities might exist. In such scenarios, ensure to draw each potential reactant in a separate window.
- **Combining Structures:** Use ‘+’ signs from the drop-down menu to separate different structures.

**ChemDoodle Interface Explanation:**
- **Tools Available:**
  - Selection tool, drawing tools (lines, shapes), eraser, undo/redo options.
  - Copy and paste capabilities.
  - Various chemical structure templates (e.g., hexagons for aromatic rings, cyclohexane, etc.).
  
- **Workspace:**
  - A blank editable area where you draw the chemical structures.
  
Use the ChemDoodle tools provided to accurately construct the structure of the missing compound in the exercise.

**Additional Notes:**
This exercise helps reinforce your understanding of reaction mechanisms and the process of identifying unknown components in chemical reactions.
