Deregistering a Chromebook - how? What happens to the extra Google Drive space?

Have an older Samsung Chromebook that I bought primarily because of the additional 100GB of Google Drive space.

If I want to sell it

a) How do I deregister my Google account so that there are no traces on the Chromebook?

b) What happens to the extra drive space? Does it go away? Will I get a bill?

Yes, I Googled but must need more caffeine

Powerwash the Chromebook:
Settings - Show Advanced - Factory Reset

You keep the Google Drive space. Added: Until it expires.

Eventually, yes. The free Google drive space is for 2 years, and once that is up, you'll need to start paying. Thankfully, Google Drive space is cheap nowadays, so 100GB is only $1.00/month.
